about

2AeM is a cooperative design effort composed of the 3 young Midwestern-sprung, spread-the world-out, out-and-out Architecture student-architects: nicholas m. reiter, Jessie Wilcox and Peter Nguyen. The team base was originally Milwaukee, WI but since has become a mobile abstraction or a state of mind. 2AeM is sometimes physical, sometimes sober, partially virtual, usually vocal, and all-the-time IN-it.

We are track jumpers, demons, villains and observing you right now. Design is the New and so are the Stakes.

My ever new height reaching associative meaning surfing, has lead me, this morning, to some interesting articles. How do things develop?

The article below on the origins of the Hoodie got my mind turning-- especially when it came to the end of the article with the blip on how high fashion designers adopted it- but only after 50 years of becoming popular. What does it mean to take things for granted? And, in the second article... an evolutionist questions why we run in shoes. Why do we?
