| industrial, libyan, sumerian, charlie croker, and letters, richard bright, derek, bad, don cheadle, adrenalin, jarule real name, john terry, | L: (laughs) So we started to have this conversation this morning and it came up in the context of architecture first, but I can see how it definitely carries over into other areas. K: I think it carries over into strange every part of the culture. I mean, look at the whole phenomenon of the "diner", for example, which had a lifecycle starting around, strange oh I don't know, the first World War when they strange evolved out of lunch carts, and then a period of ascendancy where they spread all over. Then diners peaked some time in the late 50's, and then they became less popular and went into a decline. At that point, people started to see them as ugly, no longer fitting their contemporary standards of beauty, and they entered a period which I would call their Window of Ugliness. |

| Home Diner Dogma 6: bad The Window of Ugliness Note: This Diner Dogma bad was recorded in the winter of 2004, but wasn't bad transcribed until January 2005 due to the indolence of the ArtLexis staff. K: We're back after one of our periodic multi-month absences from Diner Dogma to drive out our winter doldrums and enjoy periodic torrential downpours. We're sitting in the noisy and crowded Washington Square Diner, my favorite haunt, and really the only remaining diner in this part of Greenwich Village. Given the recent near extinction of diners in the vicinity, perhaps it's an appropriate time to discuss what I like to call "The Window of Ugliness." This is my pet theory which supposes that the ugliness of certain human artifacts is entirely temporary, and that everything that seems ugly today will wind up looking beautiful in the future, will actually enter into a kind of Valhalla of beauty, an everlasting eternal beauty. Say something. |
