various ideas
"Wallpaper" the exterior surface of the Villa Savoye model (with ICM plans?) and then create a lot of perspectives.
Start utilizing the model of Center City Philadelphia/Pantheon Paradigm to start Novel Architecturale. I also like the notion of collecting all the "characters/plans" as fragments of a large puzzle/plan. The notion of introducing the actual site plans of all the various buildings within Pantheon Paradigm, thus introducing an ongoing bilocationality. Remember, bilocation and labyrinth are now part of novel architecturale.
Add "otherness" to the drawings of the various "book" projects.

Repetition Repetition Repetition
Your Found Plan Mash-Ups don't have to be a dead end.
The mash-ups reminded me of the mirror-copy plans of Ichnographia Quondam, for example:

LET'S BUY A HOUSE IN DETROIT
Since it's right about now that the transverse colon and the duodenum simultaneously appear within the plane of the present, assimilation is here now in the guise of both its extremes.
Does that explain Detroit now?
Yeah.
Will Detroit anytime soon attain a catabolic/anabolic duality?
The safe answer is "for sure in about 190 years."

"design" vs. "styling"
So current-day stylization has a lot to do with covering-up or eliminating the common insecurities of most individuals?

In the future, everyone will be infamous for 15 hours.

1943. Tuesday, New York City
Describing the temporary home of the Large Glass which Miss Dreier has not yet seen [10.9.1943J, Dee explains: "It is not a very large room but there are vistas front and back of the glass. The artificial light thrown from the ceiling is not too strong."

1924. Sunday, Paris
"Back since Sunday with a pitiful result," writes Duchamp to Jacques Doucet referring to his performance in the French Chess Championship at Strasbourg [7.9.1924].
Concerning the optical machine, Duchamp says: "I have tried spurring on our mechanic. I have almost (!) finished fitting the striped globe onto the first plate. He is busy (!) with the motor. He has had a triangle made in wood to make the whole thing more stable. In short I am sure of succeeding. It requires your patience and mine... As soon as I have got something presentable," promises Duchamp, "I will ask you to come to Man Ray's..."
Forgetting in his first note to mention his quest for black velvet, Duchamp writes again to Doucet: "I would like to glue velvet as a backcloth onto the metal plate which holds the spiral. An English velvet, a silk velvet?? A velvet which resembles the absolutely mat backcloths that one sees in film studios. 70 cms wide by the same length. Maybe you could help me to find this?"
