"It is the function of time to render obsolete all forms of utility, including the
function of iconography. Eventually, all that remains are the mute after images of buildings that have lost everthing else; over the abondoned constructs of the past only the eye continues to rove, loosened form the bonds of use and sign. The building that is unfinished, like the ruin that is in decay, has no functional purpose or use, it is experienced only on the basic of its
material prepsence within its surroundings."
