Why? They're mostly a waste of time. None of them even touches on the questions I want answered. It's as though the subject is on sanctified ground we're not allowed to walk on. Utzon complained that when he looked at the Sydney Opera House, he could see too much Arup and too little Utzon. I do too; far too much Arup. It's a clue to Utzon's failure on that job and nobody is prepared to talk about it. Utzon bricked up the door between his office and Arup's. Why? It was the beginning of the scandal that was the Sydney Opera House. Why all the pussy-footing and empty eulogising? I doubt that the truth will ever come out now as the world descends ever deeper into self-delusion and humbug.
Amazing to have this history captured.
It is so unfortunate to see so less number of views for these amazing videos. We need to share and spread these videos
