Briliant fresh still relevant. Decentralisation is comming NEXT level

Fascinating interview. It would be interesting to know which of his works at that point Wright considered to be failures and why ...

[@mikehenson819]

So happy to see these old clips of Wrights interviews. He was without a doubt a flawed man. But undeniably a very gifted man too. I thank God these old video clips of him are still with us. They are the closest things we have to a time machine. Allowing those of us who never knew the man in life, to both see and hear his thoughts directly as he spoke them.
Thank you for sharing this!

Interesting how the interviewer doesn't accept his thoughts that go against his cultural norms and gets excited over others, such as marrying a rich woman, but Wright cuts him off and will not go down that road.

If a person lived outside of society it would be interesting to see how they would design their home. No ideas in their head.

What a shame that he only have few videos.

[@eduardoluna6555]

What book was he reading?

[@Nir-dna-X]

The book is called "Frank Lloyd Wright on Architecture" a small A5 book published in his latter days. Gave me a new depth of respect and admiration towards Wright

Political Corruption Adds
