Evolving from an exhibition at the Renaissance Society in 1996, Thinking the Unthinkable House presents Ben Nicholson's interests of linking hardcore scholarship, everyday observations and architectural design into an intractable system of connections. This CD-Rom, a multimedia website that is too large to comfortably set into the World Wide Web, is the ideal vehicle to make these cross-references viable and visible. Central to the CD-Rom, are two projects called The Kleptoman Cell and The Loaf House: these real and virtual works of architecture probe the psyche of the Aamerican home, commingling a host of provocative websites with each room. To compliment this theme of domesticity, a project about the B-52 Stratofortress bomber muses over militaristic matters. Above this fracas, supportive works are presented. A sacred geometric pavement, from a building of Michelangelo, is uncovered for the first time. Two complete facimilies of Nicholson's sketchbooks give insight to the working process. Interviews, music, and other collaborations are included, with notable figures such as Daniel Libeskind, Dr. David Farrell Krell, Dr. Jay Kappraff and Hartmut Bitomsky,as well as the talents of Blake Summers, Dr. Rolf Bagemihl, Peter Ippolito, Gene Coleman, Dr. David Gunkel and Catherine Wetzel. The CD-Rom, operable on Win 3.11, Win 95, Win NT and Mac OS, is a multimedia website that includes: ca.2,500 html files; ca.1,500 images; 370 sound and video files; a book and 15 articles by Ben Nicholson; and two complete sketchbooks. Included in the CD-Rom is the following licenced software: Apple Quicktime, Adobe Acrobat Reader and Netscape Communicator 4.03.
