Crap is risen...

"I think of it as a mass psychosis of unprecidented dimension, in which the people of Earth have created a form of architecture which is against life, insane, image-ridden, hollow. The ulginess which has been created in the cities of the world, and the banality and pretentiousness of many 20thC buildings, streets, and parking lots have overwhelmed the earth."

-Christopher Alexander (via Adbusters)
