“How do we change a city? How do we create a place where people want to live? Does downtown need more people and density first, or does it need more things for people to do before they will commit to actually calling it home or a place to play?”
“If a city doesn’t have sufficient density, as in L.A., then strange things happen. It’s human nature for us to look at one another— we’re social animals after all. But when the urban situation causes the distance between us to increase and our interactions to be less frequent we have to use novel means to attract attention: big hair, skimpy clothes and plastic surgery.

In the design of an exurban outlet mall, a pharmaceutical company has subtly planted the name of its newly-rebranded product: ju.ul,™.

Ephemera from a Marriage #1001: If You Like It, Then You’d Better Meet It at the Airport.
At a critical crossroads in the relationship, the Idiot awaited my arrival at Sky Harbor with this sign, simultaneously mocking my city of departure, confirming a new Zappa-related nickname, and pretty much locking it all down right there.
That was almost nine years ago. Nine.
