The giant monster

The BIM presentation was an absolute revolation, it was exactly what I had in mind. Some one else has been working on the ecosystem all along, some how I am not at all discourage by this but rather encouraged! The ecosystem, and a complicated one at that, required significant amount of work to impliment and someone having done a good example of it only means perpetuation of something positive for every one.
What is the implication of this? the system is there, it is all there, what we are missing now is a project contract structure that allow architect, designer and engineers to truly work out side of the confirm of the traditional project structure. We are still missing the last part of the revolution, just as the question raised by an audience member, how are we going to get paid? well we need a innovative project structure to match the innovative technology. The puzzele are slowing being filled in and an overall picture emerging and what I am working on will play an important role in the overall picture of thing.
What I am working on, is the ability to communicate.
As designer, we understand the importance of a medium of communication that is clear and engaging. We are clearly still missing that, on all front. we have lots of extremely technical expertise but no ways of presenting it to the public, there is still a disconnect at large.
What was missing in his presentation was this last piece, I wonder how far he has gotten with it?
