What is the point of asking about architecture to people who never involve with architecture Ha?

[@pipsissewa6623]

I wonder what you mean by this. I've known Greg since he was a student, and served on several reviews of his work at the Princeton School of Architecture. Greg Lynn - and we all could see it from the get-go - is that stunning architect and architectonic thinker who comes along perhaps once in a generation. He is certainly 'involved' with architecture, and importantly has been for more than a quarter-century.
