This post is made of a few short connection in between 3 things; all of them are linked to notions like future proof, open source and hackability.

* This morning i’ve read a very nice post by Nicolas (Pasta & Vinegar); titled buildings as flows and process, it shows a couple of pipes in the streets of North America which are depicting the infrastructure of the building itself.
* Somehow it reminded me of that post i wrote on Assembling about ‘The beauty of designing the underlying structure’ which somehow linked a large biro drawing by Amandine, a carpet by Britta Boehne, a series of paintings by Milto Manetas and my reflections on my own practice.
* This morning i was also dwelving in R-Echos archives and came across this post (original post is here): Social Networks Evil Twin Attacks which depicts an attack made on an individual using the social networks in vogue with the web 2.0, Markus the other day was speaking about this kind of concerns and issues with services like Facebook.
