Hi Fred. Those photos were taken in an area in Oslo called Bjørvika, and the buildings are part of what is known as the Barcode project. That's all I know. I'll tell you when I find out who the architects were.
Hahahahaha. Very likely. I have no idea why they use that name. Probably because of the shapes of the buildings? There's another area in Oslo that has some similar buildings, I'll see if I have time to go there and take some photos.

Di,
ReplyDeleteYes, definitely dystopian, and then some. Where were they taken? Who were the architects--some AIs?

Di,
ReplyDeleteBarcode? As in the digital signatures that computers recognize? Maybe they were designed by computers and not by humans.
