As stewie already noted, the Baetlett has been churning this Tired Istallation art "SHOW" stuff for years...yes a technical report does accompany the students progress through the year but that doeas not qualify what is put on show as their endevour to think architecture. We have by now all heard the old excuse that they must be "IMAGINATIVE"....or Uber CrREATIVE"....meaning what...? making stuff feel and look like they might be what we'll be building, 20-30 years down the road. Well guess what Peter cook and the visionary Archigram were saying that last Century..and we still havent seen a plug in city over 40 yeras later. I think these poor student have a rude awakening when they sit their backsides down on the first day of work in a architects office and are asked to... well just clean drawings up....and maybe go on site and actually measure a building. There is another old nonesesical argument that... well that is exactly why these student should be given this period in their carrers to do every thing but what will be asked of them in the work place. its like saying we will train astronauts by putting them through tasks which will bear little or negligable relevance to what they will experience in outter space. hmmmmm that makes sense...!!!
