More pointless self-absorbed nonsense from the GIA. Well done.

Are the GIA scared of change? Afraid of what could be achieved if you could combine digital mediums and traditional mediums.

What is so wrong with promoting architectural expression? Computers obviously have there place, and it would be nice to see this competition open up to digital mediums, but it shouldn't be slandered. Also wining £1200 isn't so bad either!
