I cant remember the names of the societes, but certain types of cultures created Architecture styles that could influence a persons mind, to make them Happy, Sad,Angry, Peaceful, and/or could even make somebody go Insane if they had stared at their architecture enough!
Any ideas on what some of these cultures were, or details?
Yeah it's called Las Vegas.

The coldest snow storm I can remember happened when I attended there as well. It was a gray prison to me and it always affected the deepest repression and sadness in me.
I look at it today and it reeks of the psychic energy of the repressed.
The ancient, rotting, falling-apart, nasty, moldy, intrinsically smelly, fire-hazardous house that I live in now makes me frustrated and pissed off. Something's always falling apart, literally (last week it was a group of shelves built into the counter-- spilled spices all over the place). But the rooms are nice & big and the rent cheap so I stay.... :)
I hear ya on that one. The pipes must be bad where I'm living as the water smells disgusting and tastes really bad. The "head of household" where I live doesn't want to fix them as she does not want rent to go up (which they do quite frequently in the town I live). But, three others and I will be moving into a better, bigger place, with way better people (including super genius trans-sexual and a lesbian scientist-type). So, I hope something like that sneaks up on you and it's cheap. (Yes, I know you're in CA, but it is the thought that counts.)Quote:

The apt I live in now is aweful. the elevators would just as soon move side to side as up and down, the "penthouse" hall way comming from the elevators twords my door kinda slants, made all the more obviouse by the badly hung door at the end of the hallway. damned place is falling apart. there's a fire alarm "pull station" on the second floor that has a loose pin in the handle so every now and then the fire alarm will go off for no reason. (rule of thumb around here is that if it doesn't stop after a min or 2, go a head and find the stairwell). this building will make you crazy. I'm so glad i'm moving out soon. i won't even get into the stuff that's fucked up in the apt. I don't think those peoples you tlaked about built things to make ppl go crazy, i think they were just bad land lords:p

It could also be rust in the pipes?
Perhaps. I'd trade all the well water in Fla for a bldg that doesn't wobble everytime some enters/leaves the garage. Living in LA that can really make you loony tunes...

Revel in it! :) So when's the house party? ;) Yeah, my landlord is worse than horrible. He's cheap and the house shows it. And the architects of this house would probably shriek in their graves if they knew the condition their house is in now.Quote:
