Wright Chat

In light of the 20th anniversary of Wikipedia, I’m curious about what the forum members think about its entry on Frank Lloyd Wright, re: completeness, accuracy, specific problems, and its overall quality.

I saw Elizabeth is Missing and I agree with Roderick 100%.
BTW, Glenda was a MP from 1992-2015!

Stephen Cowdery Clearly something like this is not for you. As I am sure the open page is not for you either that's fine. I now the Wright Cate and other web pages have a lot of great stuff. Michael P.. Good to know that someone knows what is best for me. I refuse to join a club that would have me ...

Whichever it is, that's a pretty good price, all of the FLW dinnerware pieces are getting hard to get.
The Cabaret style is a really "fun" thing to have. I just have the 7.5" plates and use them all the time,
everybody loves them.

Time for a reissue?

“Stephen writes that he is bothered by: "

No, not me, that was SDR.

I did look at the Wright Facebook page (through someone else's FB account) and was not impressed.
I'll stick with Wright Chat.

“No doubt it's a wonderful endeavor, but Facebook is an immediate deal killer.”

This is a deal killer for me as well.

Count me out.

My experience with "closed" groups is that there is usually an agenda—hidden or otherwise. I know that open forums can have problems, but it is far better to have things in the open.

The video makes a point of referencing its association with The Foundation

Interesting that they start with a picture of the Neils house. At 2.79m it could be considered a fortune, at least for a 2600 sq ft house. On the other hand, it sits on a million-dollar lot next to multi-million dollar homes.

Location, location, location!

I've got a Nicols Bros. sprite and it is well made, the reconstituted stone is smoother and probably tougher than concrete.

They say is it suitable for outdoors, but I wouldn’t leave it outdoors if there was a chance of freezing.

Anybody recognize the painting on the wall ? (For some reason, my mother had this reproduction on our wall, for a while.)





Another look at the painting . . .

S

All vision is ultimately in the brain, but yes.

I would think that the 3-D viewers for VR should work perfectly with the parallel images, wheras the Cross Viewing doesn't need glasses.

I'm struggling to understand cross viewing vs parallel viewing. What method(s) are used in each case ? Maybe if the pairs were shown at the same size . . . ? S Cross viewing you simply cross your eyes until a third image forms in the middle, then 'relax' your eyes a little and the 3-D image should ...

Yes, I'd enjoy seeing more. I was able to get the effect with an iPhone (held vertically or horizontally but not, so far, with a laptop. If you swap the images (Left to right, right to left) you can see it on a laptop. It is what is sometimes called 'cross viewing' vs. 'parallel viewing'. Here is a...
