Letter of Recommendation: Glass Bricks

It's weird how he talks about glass blocks like they are an endangered species. You can go on alibaba right now and get literal tons delivered to your port of call for approximately $1 per brick, in an incredible quantity of styles and colors. Have they fallen out of fashion? Sure, but buying your own wall of bricks will do nothing to stop that particular trend. On the other hand, perhaps writing an article about it in the NYT will.

These glass bricks are a lot more fun when you put controllable LED strips in them and treat each one like an individual pixel. :)

On Brick Tehcnology - Frank Lloyd Wright explored the use of concrete blocks made from locally available materials in the '20s. He made 4 "textile brick houses", one of them being used for a set in Bladerunner.[0]
