The Half Ton Man
49 min 16 sec – Aug 15, 2007
I had mixed feelings about posting this link, on the one hand I found the documentary compulsive viewing, but I wasn’t sure whether it was exploitative. Ultimately, the piece survives on its own merit as it does inform and treats the half ton man as a human being.

Street Movie of Chandigarh

Le Corbusier designed the city of Chandigarh making it one of the few examples of pure modernist urban planning by a celebrated architect and a reference point to assess the validity of ideas that are more difficult to criticize on paper.
Images of Chandigarh, like Brasilia, tend to be stock photos just after it was built, so it is fascinating to see it as it is today, in the flesh, semi-decayed and ultimately something of a testament to the failure and naivity of Le Corbusier as a planner.
