Let us not spend billions to repair a society that is, as now, borderline dysfunctional.

Pattern Language and Communications | Stephen C. Rose:

"My interest in the term pattern language lies in its original manifestation as the way Christopher Alexander and others conceptualized human settlements from the most intimate aspects of the home to the entire inhabited earth, or ecumenopolis, as C. A. Doxiadis described it.

I am vitally concerned that the Obama infrastructure project help reclaim and transform private and public space, with attention to the incredible fund of ideas in Alexander’s practical description of the nested patterns of human habitation and commerce. Let us not spend billions to repair a society that is, as now, borderline dysfunctional."
