[海外建筑生活] MIT建筑系

前些日子和版大聊天,他让我写点关于mit的情况.　趁着寒假的尾巴,随便介绍点.
mit的建筑系分为marchI　marchII　和Smarch,　分别是三年半,两年半和两年.
前两这都是naab认证的,也就是说毕业以后可以考注册建筑师.　smarch比较特殊,分为五个方向,你必须选择一个,分别是　urbanism,　computation,　theory&history,　building　technology, visual arts.

规模比哈佛,耶鲁都要小很多,一个年纪一般25个人左右.　mit建筑系的华人极少极少.像marchI,　marchII几乎没有华人的,因为国人很少转专业申请,　smarch每年会有一个中国学生(当然我相信还是有些人拿到了offer选择了其他学校).
总体来说,smarch很自由,随便怎么选课,March　I　和March　II　就很惨了.　我在的是marchI,(我没有建筑背景)一天平均大概就是睡眠3-4个小时,这个平均时间是因为有了周末每天可以睡五到六个小时拉上来的.其实平时睡的更少,不睡就不说了,睡的话经常是凌晨五点或者六点回去,随后还要赶回来上九点的课.
很疯狂.已经有一个同学退学了.　老师很负责,　每周花在你的身上的时间非常非常非常多.　这点很好.

我和smarch的同学交流下来,还是觉得如果可以选择的话,还是选择marchI　或者marchII比较好.　因为smarch其实被没有进入一个教学计划中去,虽然说是自由了,但某种程度上说也是被忽视了.当然,看你看重的是什么,比如你是smarch的也有更多的机会去选media　lab的课----因为相对而言空很多咯.　
张永和现在的改革已经受到了系里的广泛好评,改革我这年是第二年.班里会有一半以上的同学都是在gsd和mit之间选择来的这里.(不过当时gsd没有给我这个选择的权利),这点可以看出,mit和gsd在价值观上应该还是存在不小的差别导致了这样的选择,或许奖学金也是一个重要原因.　张觉得美国的整体教育严重脱离了现实,所以他的教学方针会更务实,更脚踏实地些.　他大批的挖墙角(对不起了,其他兄弟学校),招纳中青年有丰富实践经验的优秀设计师.　不过,当然,因为到后面有很多studio可以选,你想走非线性,狂野路线也当然是ok的.　我只是说,在这点上,mit和现在美国的主流建筑系还是蛮不同的.　

教学上,所有的课都是以studio为中心,因为班级小,所以不同的课程的老师之间开始建立了一个紧密的联系.　比如理论课,会牵涉到现在studio的project的东西,design　skills也会做关于studio的东西,甚至包括drawing的课.　随后评图的时候也会请到其他课的老师一起来拼图,当然也包括building　tech的老师.　

换句话说,每门课不再是孤立的了,而是整合在一起了.
其次,我想说的是氛围,我觉得这应该是mit学生最值得自豪的事情.　互相帮助的气氛很好.　比如在deadline之前,大家已经通宵了一两天了,在最后一个晚上,我还有很多东西没完成,一个美国同学完成自己的东西后会再熬一个通宵来帮我做模型.　比如,老师在评我图的时候,会给出很多意见,我英语差,每次,同学都会帮我做笔记怕我听不懂.　这样类似的事情太多了,到期末复习的时候,理论课由于英语的关系,对我还是比较头疼,他们复习的时候就会叫上我,这样可以带一带.　不多举了.　

另外关于钱的事情,据我所知,来的所有人除了有一个以外,都是拿到免学费一半以上的,并且没拿到的人第二年也有很大机会拿到.　随后学校的奖学金是保证整个学习时间的,而不是单单第一年.　海外的studio当然也很多,假期也都有很多海外workshop,费用都是包来回机票和住宿.

不过,有点很重要,这里真的很变态,学习.来的话想清楚,个人生活肯定是没有的.　我们反正也有两个同学想转学了.　不过听说第二年睡眠时间可以上升到平均五到六个小时.

Interview with Steve Jobs, WGBH, 1990

Interviewer: what is it about this machine? Why is this machine so interesting? Why has it been so influential? Jobs: Ah ahm, I'll give you my point of view on it. I remember reading a magazine article a long time ago ah when I was ah twelve years ago maybe, in I think it was Scientific American . I'm not sure. And the article ahm proposed to measure the efficiency of locomotion for ah lots of species on planet earth to see which species was the most efficient at getting from point A to point B. Ah and they measured the kilocalories that each one expended. So ah they ranked them all and I remember that ahm...ah the Condor, Condor was the most efficient at [CLEARS THROAT] getting from point A to point B. And humankind, the crown of creation came in with a rather unimpressive showing about a third of the way down...

Apple's One-Dollar-a-Year Man, By Steve Jobs, 2000

(FORTUNE Magazine) – Now that Steve Jobs has showed his hand on Apple's Internet and system software strategies and dropped the "interim" from his title, other questions loom. He's always denied it, but isn't it true that his old company, Next, did wind up taking over Apple? Will there ever be an encore to the 15-year-old Macintosh? Short of that, does Apple have any plans to jump into the "Internet appliance" fray? Will Apple ever build computers for business people again? And what, pray tell, does Steve think of all these young Internet zillionaires? Let's ask. Practically every technology that your old company, Next, possessed when Apple acquired it in 1997 is now being used by Apple in some strategic way. This must seem like sweet vindication. The thing about Next was that we produced something that was truly brilliant for an audience that our heart really wasn't into selling to--namely, the enterprise. I suppose if you were wr...

Steve Jobs: `There's Sanity Returning', 1998

Nobody can doubt the charisma of Steven P. Jobs. The interim CEO of Apple Computer Inc., who returned to the company last July after his ignominious 1985 ouster, has brought back his legendary vision, impatience, and infectious passion for the Macintosh. Jobs spoke to Business Week Correspondent Andy Reinhardt in Apple's stark, fourth-floor boardroom, just after the company rolled out its new software strategy on May 11. Note: This is an extended, online-only version of the Q&A that appears in the May 25, 1998, issue of Business Week. Q: Now that you've introduced the new, bold-looking iMac, are you going to do some radically different products? A: There's a lot of talk about such things -- about handhelds, set-top boxes. A lot of computer companies have been searching for a consumer product. My view is that the personal computer has been the most successful consumer product of the last 10 years. What we have to do, what the industry stopp...
