I Love the Bauhaus and German Modernism

I agree it might be a start. And the blueprint is here! @helenS

@helenS Yes, Le Corvú.

@helenS But de-humanized cities came from the hands of chaotic market rules rather than that school of thought.
Some critics make with this the same conceptual mistakes that others do when reading the foundational philosophy of Science of Francis Bacon.
Postmodernist blindness.

@CharlieZ "The street is a traffic machine, in reality a factory to produce speed." (Le Corbusier, City of Tomorrow, p.131)

He saw speed as a brutal necessity. There's no place for children or a street-car, on his traffic machine-like speed factories.

@CharlieZ "Postmodernist blindness.
— Hah! Finally something we disagree on! 😁

@helenS True.
But the real maker of that trend was not Le Corvú, but the enabling think-nothing-do nothing-save-our-individual-asses of postmodern thought and it´s antecedents.
The cultural corelate of market laws.
THAT and speculative prices of land left no place for children.

@CharlieZ
"El sueño de la razón produce monstruos"

... I would translate/interpret this as

"The dream of perfect reason produces monsters"

That's post-modern thinking, in a nutshell, and I totally agree on this.

@helenS I´ve used the soft gentle word "blindness" as courtesy.
My mind call it in a less polite way.

@helenS Puedo leerlo en Castellano / Español.
Y los monstruos vienen de otras fuentes.

@CharlieZ "My mind call it in a less polite way.

Thanks Helen. I think you between you gave me all the quotations I need! @helenS

@BlodynHafJones You're welcome - but I don't think Le Corbusier was a Bauhaus member. The quotations were intended to show that modernity may lead to new forms of oppression, new prisons, constructed by reason.

Are you linking the freedom of expression with Hitler? @helenS

@BlodynHafJones Hitler? No, nothing to do with Hitler, or freedom of expression.
