Born by a desire to distinguish itself from the the 9/11 reconstruction as stated by Rem Koolhaas. This dramatic fire has connected the CCTV back to a global Tragedy. It is quite amazing to see that the birth of the idea behind the TCCV (the global accident, fire, the ruin) has resurface at 3 or 2 months before its opening.
Koolhaas remains silent… while Balmond is flying there, seeing his masterpiece, the structure, still holding against the sky…
sux!’
the person who fired the “tvcc” get fired…..
xus!’
the person who fried the “ctcv” get red if…..

Жость!
Terrible view, first thing i thought was ‘how could it fire that way, if using modern technology is ment’?
so, now let’s see what cr*p koolhaas comes up with. I can’t even image the amount of BS, manifestos and other stuff that their going to come up with at OMA. More publicity for them… ugh…
