errr that would be AN Architect.

Like Howard Roarke. Which segues nicely into AI stealing our production. Dagny, Hank, Ragnar, Francisco etal would all be on strike over this seizure and socialization of the fruits of our minds....for profit and not
Howard would want to continue to build that skyscraper his way for as long as he could or in between somewhere.

Just watched some of Ayn Rand's A Sense of life biography movie showing on one of the free streamers Tubi hence my mind on Roarke.

IMO will definitely be read along side of history's great philosophers in being able to articulate what is special about our own person individual universe.
She threw me totally to radical individualism as a reaction to what I had been reading at the time....Herman Hesse
Was about 20 or so and Borg had already won something like 4 Wimbledons or something amazing so Hesse...who paints characters who search but do not find...was messing me up some.
Rand's Atlas Shrugged was the first and I went back to read most everything novel by her and Objectivism.

Age tempers as they say ....

and on the subject of architects

Frank Gehry just passed away leaving an amazing legacy. One of those top top top people we were talking about in Dom's Gene thread about inequality in compensation.
Here it is inequality in commissions because only a select few are ever invited to bid on major prestigious projects like museums and opera houses and such where bold art can rule.
Our culture and civilization has definitely been enriched for his being.


If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop
