I wonder if you listen to these, wondering or longing? I wonder if you listen to these with even a glimmer of desire to participate?  Ivan Himanen: Born in Helsinki in 1987 to a Finnish father and Russian mother. Learned to draw before he learned to walk. Once spent an afternoon playing violin in the streets because he didn't have enough cash for an ice cream. Moved to New York City in 1993 and has dwelled there ever since. Studied fine arts at LaGuardia High School, architecture at The Cooper Union, and cities & technology at The Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia. Believes in technique, adaptability, patience, storytelling, that touching cold stone or dry wood will never cease to delight, and that no single person has the power to build a community.
