Mads Langer at Café Von Hatten, the 13th of February 2010.
Mads Langer is one of the most talented musicians here, and he's gotten rather popular in the last couple of months - if you haven't heard his music yet, he's worth a listen!
This show was absolutely amazing. Without a doubt, the best and most intimate concert in my life.

The orignal English version:
How do we survive the future? The visionary architecture of Eugene Tsui
"What we want to create is... a building the way nature would like us to live, the way that nature would create structure for human beings"
- Eugene Tsui
The word visionary has several definitions. It may refer to someone marked by an impressive imagination or foresight, one who sees into the future. However it can also refer to that which is incapable of ever being realized; that which exists in vision only. Often times both of these definitions come into play when we enter the realm of visionary architecture.
Eugene Tsui is a visionary architect. He has an expansive imagination, impressive credentials and a host of ambitious projects, many built and many, as of yet, unrealized. Among Tsui's more ambitious yet-unrealized projects is the Ultima Tower, a two-mile high, 'city in the sky.' Structurally based on a termite nest, the suspended, trumpet bell shaped structure would house one million people and is aimed at halting the uncontrolled encroachment of urban sprawl into our natural surroundings. His design is a re-conceptualization of what living in a city can be, a more efficient form of living that aims to reduce our overall consumption rather than settling for sustainability, an idea Tsui finds insufficient.
Standing out from its more traditionally constructed neighbors, the Tsui house in Berkeley, California is modeled after the tardigrade, a microscopic animal capable of survival in the most extreme environments. Built in 1994 as a residence for his parents, the house is designed for the utmost protection from the natural elements. Inside the house one finds an organically inspired arrangement of rooms, with a prominent central lounge area connected to the upstairs with a gently spiraling ramp instead of stairs. The initial experience might be likened to walking onto the set of a 1960's era science fiction movie; after exploring the house one gradually comes to learn how well designed the space is to maximize natural light, airflow and thermal regulation while minimizing energy requirements. After spending time with Tsui you begin to see past the initial radical appearance of his designs, to the sound thinking that underlies them.
Tsui is a man who needs not worry about the definition of the word visionary. His unrealized designs inspire others to think anew about what is possible in architecture. They are seeds for conversations, the outcomes of which may someday lead us to improve upon the larger structures within which our lives transpire. Simultaneously, his completed buildings are living proof of the practicality and feasibility of his forward thinking designs. The ultimate function of a design is sometimes in its built form, sometimes in the power of its concept, or on rare occasions, both.
