japanese wood
One more Japanese connection: When we started the student house project, I read “Norwegian Wood”, by Haruki Murakami. I was just attracted by the title, and didn’t expect any further connections with the process… As Watanabe (the main character) described the residence he used to live in, I found an amusing link with myspace project in this kind of ‘universal’ feeling within the dorm of curtains being semi-permanent parts of the window that no student even thought that could be washed!

The curtain walls in MySpace student house are not only about customization. They deal again with collective management, that in the end becomes the image that those individuals present as a community to the city.
...with the help of some kind of light-based protoles... What would that be? collective customization?
customized collective identity?
