Choose one of Frank Gehry's buildings and introduce it in a blog post on this blog by going to "new post" at the top right of this screen and making your own post. Remember to write a title and start by giving your name. Then, write your blog: tell us the building you have chosen, where it is, what it is used for, and when it was made. Give other background information about it too. After that, explain what you think of it and why. Be as detailed as you can. Add a photo, or a video and links about the building. For this homework you can use photos from the internet.
**Due date: Wednesday November 9 at 17:00.
**Everyone should comment on all the posts by Wednesday November 16 at 17:00. When you make your comment, try to include a question or give an opinion that the post writer and other members of the class (and Ms. MacGregor) can reply to. Let's try to make the posts and the comments more interactive so we can have a lively discussion online!
*** If there is absolutely no Frank Gehry building you want to introduce, then choose a different architect, but make sure to include some background information about him/her in addition to the above.

Besides the above blog homework, we haven't finished all we needed to do in the textbook, Unit 8, lecture on architecture. Please do the textbook HW watching the vldeo of the lecture for Friday November 11.
Here are two versions of the video lecture. The first one is just the lecture and the second one is the lecture with powerpoint notes.
