だいぶ前に飲み屋で隣のテーブルに東大建築のM先生がいた。高校の同窓生と飲んでいるらしくその中に同じ東大のシステムのO先生がいた。名刺交換してSNSで少しお話もしていたのだが、そのO先生から先日、神保町で私の新著を発見してとても面白そうだとメールをくれた。データーと建築は似ているなと思ったというのだった。建築を建築外の視点から見ることが多い僕はよく他の分野の人から興味を持たれる。以前は遺伝メカニズムの先生に発見され「流れと淀み」を語る会というのに誘われた。A while ago, I was at a bar and there was Professor M from the University of Tokyo's Department of Architecture sitting next to me. He was drinking with his high school classmates and among them was Professor O from the same University of Tokyo's Department of Systems. We exchanged business cards and chatted a bit on social media, and the other day Professor O sent me an email saying that he had found my new book in Jimbocho and thought it was very interesting. He said that he thought data and architecture were similar. I often look at architecture from a perspective outside of architecture, so people from other fields are often interested in me. I was previously discovered by a professor of genetic mechanisms and invited to a meeting to talk about "flow and stagnation."
