145 - Brutalism, Cell Phone Buildings, and Anteaters: Every Idea Has Its Time

On this episode, Kris and I nerd out on different forms of architecture, and develop a system for sharing syncs with strangers.

We talk about:

Hoodies vs. fleeces, Jiffy Lube play, W-H-I-T-E privilege, Tom Wolfe's refrigerator writing, scriptedness has taken hold, QUACK!!!, stunt doubles, ricochet harmonics, Burmese pythons, the Counting Man with the clothespin hands, basic structural grammar, gimmick buildings, purple houses, the gimmick of no gimmick, actually having to live in a space, the Lost City Museum, tic-tac-toe heads, semantics precedes perception, the welcome ambush, wild surmise, architecture defining the age, the quantum nature of Central Park, Korean tenements, anonymity, strip windows, Soviet brutalism, Rally Way, structures made for skateboarding, stem cells, inter-zoo conflict, the isolation of OKC, the dead will be left with too many buildings, participating in the ceremony of imagination, Millennial hell, waiting on yourself, eating ants, sympathetic magic, ant psychology, the Chinese Emperor regimen, oscillating wave form of verbs, Ace of Base sync, non-local earworms, telling strangers your syncs, Tabasco Twins, speaking nonsense, offset blowgun targets, every idea having its day, the way steampunk work, abandonment vs. continuance, and regenerating orcas.
