Citizen Architect: Samuel Mockbee and the Spirit of the Rural Studio
Citizen Architect is Sam Wainwright's film about Samuel Mockbee and the Rural Studio. We at Armchair helped with developing the website for the film. There's a forthcoming site dedicated to the life and influence of the late Samuel Mockbee which I'll share soon. If you're interested in architecture about social good, or as Sambo puts, "shelter for the soul," then check out this film when it debuts at SXSW in March or when it tours this summer. View the trailer here.

JPG Magazine Early Issues
JPG's early issues are now on Issu for your browsing: JPG Magazine Issue 1. I have an image on page 19. JPG was the brainchild of couple Heather Champ and Derek Powazek. It was a sparkling digital publishing experiment made from images submitted by photographers. At the time, it was printed using Lulu, then a young on-demand printing service for self-publishers. I remember thinking JPG was ahead of its time. It leveraged all the things great about the web, community,creation and technology.
Hotel Bazar
We stayed a night at Hotel Bazar in Rotterdam in early September, 2001. Only days later we would be rerouted to Canada on our flight home. In St. John's, Newfoundland we would spend another five days waiting for the US air space to open back up after the 9/11 attacks. We slept on the floor of a banquet hall and ate cod for every meal. Years later, we would get a Newfoundland as a pet. Her name is Gigi.
