Abstract

For countless thousands of Americans an outstanding memory of childhood is the family trip, which included, as often as not, a stop along the way for a good quick meal at a diner. Others, especially those from small towns, remember the afternoons after highschool classes let out sitting in a local diner drinking Cokes and whiling away the hours till supper. The diner, that gleaming train-carshaped palace of the hamburger and the french fry, of the hot roast beef sandwich with mashed on the side and brown gravy over all, has been a part of the American scene and the American experience for just over a century now, and for aficionados of the diner-or for those who just enjoy remembering-here is the first complete book of the American lunch wagon.American Diner is a richly illustrated scrapbook, presenting through words and more than 300 photographs and drawings a social, gastronomic, and architectural portrait of this uniquely American institution. From its earliest days as a horsedrawn wagon that came each night to the center of town and left each day by dawn to its explosion as a spaceship-like architectural marvel, the diner has been a faithful reflection of the styles and even the values with which Americans have been most comfortable. This unique celebration traces with care and affection the history of that relationship. Packed with anecdotes, dozens of "I- never-knew-that" facts and figures, and brimming with good humor, American Diner is a remarkable, joyful document of America.

Abstract

The McDonaldization theory argued that contemporary life is succumbing to the standardisation, flexibility and predictability of fast-food service. This text engages in a critical appraisal of this thesis.

Abstract

The first issue of "Verb" looks closely at the current relationship between information and authorship in cultural practice, asking: how does the increasing complicity between author and audience affect architectural practice? And how can architecture be conceived more fluidly in terms of information? The shift from ''modern'' to digital systems of design and production opens up a material work to a much more profound interaction between author and audience. This change represents a new stage in the development of the relationship that a work--or, in another sense, a message--establishes between the author--or sender--and the reader--or receiver. From the classical work, with its "a priori," essentialist model of appreciation, to the modernist object, with its subjective model of aesthetics, to the emerging cybernetic model, the interface between author and ''user'' has become closer, more direct, and more open. Handsomely designed and richly illustrated, this combination of book and magazine--a "boogazine"--is the first installment in what is sure to be a groundbreaking journey through architecture and design. Essays by Jorge Wagensberg, Manuel de Landa, Alejandro Zaera, Kunio Watanabe, and Adilkno Bilwet.
