Happy New Year, gents! My summary of the past 12 months is simple: Yikes!
-----
Sure has been quiet in the Institute lately but I don't think it's a big deal. I don't think blogs on this site ever die; I'm still waiting to read the follow up on Merino socks from one of Uncle Ken's original blogs. Patience is a singular virtue of mine and I can wait longer, which is why I seldom post. There are topics that I'm still pondering, not sure if I am able to bring light to the issues or am just prolonging pointless arguments. We three are very different and I think it best to keep my mouth shut most of the time.

I know Uncle Ken is a big fan of Louis Sullivan, but how about other architects? There is a local guy that teaches at Circle (is it still called that?), Stewart Hicks, and he has a YouTube channel that gets into many aspects of architecture. Good stuff, especially in the context of urban design, another favorite rabbit hole of mine.

My rabbit holes seem to have their own rabbit holes; I keep finding interesting movies to watch online. One of the latest is No Other Choice, "a 2025 South Korean satirical black comedy thriller film." The main guy works in a paper mill, maybe a bigger one than Mr. Beagles is familiar with. The film looks good so far as long as you don't mind subtitles.

Okay, that's all I've got for now. Keep your powder dry.
