Architectural Patterns for Woodcarvers: A Design Sourcebook Book

Well, I haven't actually finished this yet. 12 more pages, so any week now. Yeah, I love to read Wigley reading Derrida reading Heidegger reading Kant as much as the next guy...well, no i don't (and neither does he). I suspect for you acidic post-structuralist types, this is great stuff. It seems well conceived and realized, with jazzy little title names ("Doing the Twist"). i will share a quote from one of the few lines that does not include someone else's quote (from my favorite chapter "Spaced Out," on page 69 - also my favorite), Wigley writes, "Inasmuch as space is not a static receptacle of inscriptions but an effect of ongoing inscription, what the tradition attempts to subordinate is not so much space as the gesture of inscription that produces space." I could probably figure out whatever it is that he's talking about, but when "inscription" turns up more than once in any given sentence then all bets are off. I'm going to read a damn baseball book on my commutes from now on!
