CSAIL Backside
Taken from the AI Neighborhood. All the departments in the building are organized into what Gehry calls "Neighborhoods". This concept is essentially many offices within a department organized around one large common space. However, the spaces are designed counter-intuitively so that you sort of get lost. Everyone has displays of what they're working on at their workspace and people that are lost are supposed to walk by your display, see what you are working on and hopefully realize that they are somehow able to solve your problem or use it to solve a problem they have, thus creating a catalyst for brilliant discoveries. Its amazing.
