I do not know how to craft this paper.
I have read five years worth of Frank Lloyd Wright and I am writing in circles. Basically, all five years have to do with Organic Architecture. In every single writing he manages to find a way to talk about the Organic. Only, it is way different than in his buildings. Since he is writings, he talks about how an Organic Architecture is of life - how if people start to understand themselves as Individuals and use their heart and Mind - Organic lifestyle can come to life.
He talks about how bringing the idea of the Organic to the scale of a person is the way to begin. That way if everyone lived an organic life - democracy would not be Mobocracy - and we would not be push-button machine loving Homo Sapiens. He is basically trying to restructure civilization through his beliefs of the Organic.
I agree with all of it. I agree we are all robots - go to school - learn too much for own capacity - then live in cookie cutters. He is saying that if we learn to learn ourselves and use our intellect and heart, we can learn creativity. Learning from within as opposed to learning from everyone around us.
I don't know how to structure this damn paper. I am an advocate of all his beliefs - regardless of how harsh, I am on his side. I don't want to summarize these five years worth of writings- I was thinking of giving an overview of the Organic and then dividing the paper into six parts - one part per year. And showing how in every way possible he has managed to connect parts of our life to the Organic way it could be...is that lame? ahhh i need you.

i don't know FLWs writing like you do. as an unfamiliar outsider into his words, honestly, it makes me chuckle to myself: what you say about his writing. because i've always thought of, and, well, credited FLW with the realization of the cookie-cutter american dream. the L shaped ranch home around personal yard + carport. The white picket fence was maybe added by someone else? looking at urban sprawl as pioneering the new frontier and an osmosis of americans filtering the american landscape.
