SCAPE winter 20112
_SCAPEnote Well, this is certainly archaic, isnt it? A printed
magazine?
A printed directory of landscape architecture firms? What
a waste of paper. We should be putting this up on some
interactive search website, or making a Facebook page
(youd like that, wouldnt you?). Its a digital age, right,
and _SCAPE should get with the program.
Except I love to actually hold books and magazines.
This dilemma, as you well know, is plaguing all sectors of
the written economy right now. As I type, it is the day
after
the Super Bowl, a game whose commercials sometimes
foretell the future. This year, alongside the requisite
beer-
cans-to-the-groin and awkward-corn-chips-moments-
in-the-office vignettes, was a Best Buy spot featuring
Ozzy Osbourne and Justin Bieber in techno-Tron outfits
pitching the latest advances in technology. (I hate to think
what this says about the future.) The Minnesota-based company is
hawking tech that may allow you to do away
with printed news. Complementing that was a spot for
The Daily, a news service for the iPad pioneered by
media giant Rupert Murdoch. The Dailys website says,
so elegantly, that new times demand new journalism.
But wait. Everyone thinks internet content is free. How
will The Daily (or frankly any news outlet) make any
money? Money it of course needs to pay the journalists
who, despite the digital media, must still (hopefully) do
actual research, see actual sites, perform actual
interviews,
etc. Well, The Daily is going to make you pay: about $40
per year. Take that, New York Times, to whom I pay $30
per month for Sunday only home delivery.
For the record, I dont think journalism should be free.
Whether paid for through advertising, memberships, or
direct purchase, learned content, whether on line or in print,
should come at some cost to the consumer. So I like
the idea of The Daily.
But getting back to this directory. How do we pay for
_SCAPE? How do we pay for our articles, for printing?
A combination of sources. So thank-you to our sponsors,
whose artwork appears in these pages. Thank-you to the
firms who are listed here. And thank-you to all ASLA-MN
members. We have always tried to give you something
more for your money: not just a directory of awards and
firms, but also content (as in: journalism).
Unfortunately, there is no content in this issue. This has
nothing to do with any of the things Ive talked about here,
but rather a collision of unforeseens that has left us bereft.
But well be back in a few months with a full complement
of articles. And well still let you have a hard copy of this
tangible, page-flippable, utterly historic (in the sense of
obsolete) magazine.
Read on!Adam Regn Arvidson, ASLA
