Buy one, get one free. How Critical is this act?
#BatiMat is to #‎architecture what is #AutoCad to #‎architect : #Interference.
Post-Criticism could be: The Criticism is dead, long live the Criticism!

Criticism has become banal. Banality has become critical.
I #‎like therefore I am. #‎facebook #‎Synergy?

The beautiful, at most, left me indifferent. The banal is banal.
The ugly, most times, moved me. (and from now? ...)
One of the missing conditions in the #Mediterranean space?
 ///////to @storefrontnews: #OLD. The Old, the Lateness and the elDerly ...
When, mostly, Old refers to spatial 'confusion',
Lateness is, mainly, considered as 'contemporary' and social.
Meanwhile, elDerly are systematically assimilated to their 'OLD' aesthetic.

The real question is rather:
Who will NOT come to Venice? #fundamentals #‎countdownvenice2014 @monditalia @elementsarch @la_Biennale

*** About: the #fenCLUB, founded by Nacym+Sihem Baghli in 2010,
is a ?!discussion?! group that confronts Architecture & Urban-design+planning with other/different disciplines (art, philosophy, media,...). It aims to become
a #CriticismGenerator. Nacym+Sihem have been rapidly joined by a few friends, thereby forming the fenCLUB's hard core. The inaugural meeting was held in their office/gallery (#Algiers) in December 2010.

#1 Avertissement
Ce travail a été pensé « trans-architecture ». Il use et abuse des technologies modernes. Il incarne de ce fait la Modernité. Le présent texte, original, en français fait l’objet actuellement de correctifs, d’une augmentation ainsi que d’une traduction (anglais). Le fond documentaire est conséquent. Parmi celui-ci, la « matière première ». Elle est constituée par plus de 300 dossiers techniques de « Villas » réalisées entre 1973 et 2013 (liste ci-jointe). Seul quelques cas sont représentés dans ce travail, à titre indicatif. Le reste est en filigrane, et à disposition au besoin. L’échiquier métropolitain, ce champ d’observation critique, a pour foyer originel Alger. Cependant le spectre d’expérimentation, voire de spéculation, est plus vaste. Il transcende aussi les règles et les convenances (académiques). La mise en perspective de l’architecture dans ce travail se percevra suivant plusieurs scénarii, et en autant de possibilités. Elle se traduira sur plusieurs plans et à différentes échelles (échelle relative). Enfin, ce travail est par essence même inachevé.
