Norman Mailer’s lego City Of The Future.
Each Lego brick represents an apartment. There’d be something like twelve thousand apartments. The philosophers would live at the top. The call girls would live in the white bricks, and the corporate executives would live in the black.
Well, that’s all of society taken care of, then.
Of course, Mailer didn’t stoop to doing the actual assembly.
Norman acted as the brains behind the project, soon discovering that he didn’t like the sound of the plastic Lego pieces snapping together; it struck him as vaguely obscene.
