ParticipantThe short list is a bit mysterious since it does not appear on the DDDA web site. What is the progeny of the list? And yes, post it…..

KeymasterI have received illustrations which I believe to be the original design that they selected – I have contacted the jury for comments (early this morning) – no denials or comments forthcoming….
watch this space
and btw if you haven’t visited the online expo recently, we now have over seventy concepts on display… still more to come..

ParticipantOk.
so is it public or is it invite only.
Are all entrants invited.
are they going to reveal the “mystery winner”?
If they dont comment, are people prepared to protest.
There was an article in bd yesterday by charlie gates.dont think its online.
but email cgates@cmpinformation if you want a copy of it/dont get the magazine in ireland?

KeymasterSomehow I’m fairly certain I won’t get invited to taste the DDDA’s wine selection 😉
Great that the exhibition is finally happening though.October 3, 2003 at 3:50 pm #727242emf
ParticipantPaul maybe an official invitee could get you in as their partner???

Participantcan you guys print up t-shirts with the “winning” scheme and attend – it would be a great! They could have the words ” got screwed ” above the rendering and then the back could be large letters that say ” U2? “

Participanti like collaborating – that works too, and is much better with the insertion of local context/culture…..can we keep the back of the tee spare and questioning?

ParticipantEL ARCHITINO has considered the idea of a witty comment on a t-shirt and has come to the conclusion that this is a vulgar approach to the situation.
EL ARCHITINO proposes an alternative and perhaps more subtle way of expressing the dismay of the architectural comunity to the DDDA. the entire area of dublin docklands should be carpet bombed repeatedly until it is a pile of dust. then we will acquire as many signatures from the public to put pressure on the DDDA to reveal the real winner (which is of course EL ARCHITINO).
EL ARCHITINO has amassed a formidable fleet of B52 bombers and eurofighter jets in case this situation ever arose.

collaborate away
If paul has the images of the winner and posts them on the boards then people can download it and make their own iron on patch and make their own t shirt with their own slogan.
Or just add it on with marker penwe could do keyrings aswell!
a couple of hundred people doing this would definitely make an impact at the opening night.
But i guess they are keeping that highsecurity and invited guests only as no doubt the band members will be there?????
Whens the grand opening?
On the thursday?
could make an interesting evening
October 3, 2003 at 5:17 pm #727248b.ray
Participantel architino – vulgar, yes I agree. but it would be elevated to the heights of couture style beneath your white suede suit – please reconsider.

ParticipantThats funny
But what makes you think you can change your status to saying “the real u2 tower winner”i think you should offer some proof or get to the back of the queue!
do not pass go and do not collect EURO 12,000
or your EURO 100 entry fee refund!
October 3, 2003 at 7:05 pm #727250pepe
ParticipantIs Paul the infamous elarchitino.
If so
I really like your biro designs/cartoons
you should try and get a weekly strip in an architecture/design magazine
reason i suspect this is i have tried to change my “status” and have not been able to:
It seems you need an administrator to do this.And i dont believe that he is “the real u2 tower winner”
but he does not accept emails
or personal messagesand he only joined the forum in September!
October 3, 2003 at 7:13 pm #727251Paul Clerkin
KeymasterNope…. i’m not elarchitino, I don’t have the time… and since I discovered computers, I’ve lost the ability to draw freehand.. elarchitino is a very welcome breath of fresh air…
i’ll post how to change your status
