they did a piece about this on npr yesterday. seems like a very interesting guy. very polarizing too. you either love him or hate him it seems....
I'm biased, but the Guthrie is amazing. Same with the Arab Institute. Each square is like a camera, with an aperature that changes throughout the day as the light changes.
