Un_Condensed: Vegas



The hardest of 'On's'. An American climax of double standards.

It exists as our truest and most revealing of feelings on consumption and contempt for a planet. With the planets acceptance of course, Vegas is more global than anywhere. There is no need to look beyond. It all exists in Vegas as a replicated experience of what urban experience can be; reconstituted in one linear 'strip' for the sensational gratification of immediate pleasures.

What is the future of this place so completely unsustainable yet growing uncontrolled in such a delicate environment? More significantly it's impact on the planet as a model for place making strategy in other global locations (specifically Macau-Cotai in Asia-the Vegas of the far east) ?
