If you can go and see them, do so. Massive, clear, bright, interesting - obviously a web page does them little justice. Take the last photo shown here - as with all good photography it really pulls in you when you view it, detail detail detail so cleverly and easily captured in this split-frame format. The architecture is good alone but you still need great work to capture it. I hear your point Edward about 3-D virtual display a la the great work at http://www.panoramas.dk/ but not here - this kind of balanced photography of architecture is wedged deep in Japanese architecture as it should be. Still - an accompanying 3-D image may be an interesting next step?

Well for you maybe, content to gaze at a 2 dimensional fragment. Perhaps with the right mixture in your pipe, you might hallucinate the spatial qualities of the structures. I demand more that a photographers notions of composition. “no need for rancid 3d ‘experiences” edward.”

That's strictly a photographers statement, like the rest more or less. He's looking at color, form, line, in a composition for its own sake. Fine if you like it. I think it's yesterdays conception.

There is a clear legibility of conversation between spaces, between body and the built. a convergence of immanence and transcendence. Place is created and recreated, invented and re-invented by the act of being, not by pres-cribing or pre-dicting or pre-visualizing. I'm disappointed at the the adjectives that you have used to describe these images. they are gripping as they are, imagine being in those spaces. i think these images do so much more talking than 3d virtual display (or whatever you call it edward) will ever do.
