<p>It looks like posting has been fairly infrequent until recently, but the topics are fantastic.  Besides the post on Guanajuato, which, as <em>BLDGBLOG </em>says, covers &#8220;<span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">nonorthogonal grids, partially underground infrastructure, off-kilter houses, and more&#8221;, </span></span>recent posts include <a href="http://freeassociationdesign.wordpress.com/2009/11/21/urban-grids-2-subterranean-vertical/">a follow-up</a> on the intricate lace of hand-dug mining tunnels which honeycomb the hills outside Guanajuato, <a href="http://freeassociationdesign.wordpress.com/2009/12/01/landscape-infrastructures-symposium/">a brief review</a> of the <em>Landscape Infrastructures</em> DVD (which neither Stephen or I have <a href="http://m.ammoth.us/blog/2009/11/landscape-infrastructures-posthumous-live-blog/">finished yet</a>), and <a href="http://freeassociationdesign.wordpress.com/2009/11/27/human-habitat-maps-of-anthropogenic-biomes/">global maps of anthropogenic biomes</a>.</p>
