reflecting on reflection, I have to mention that the barcelona pavillion
is filled with them.

An object that brings the exterior into the building and weaves it through
its convoluted mixture of real and virtual space.
To move within the building is a narcissistic exercise, where you constantly
confront yourself within in this tragic stage setting.

In a day or so I will have an online walkthrough of this pavillion, where
the subject will have the unique opportunity of remaining invisible,
uninterrupted reflections for your contemplation.

Whether this defeats the purpose of the original construction is open to
the group for reflection.
