For those of you who know me already, i like to post alot of flashback threads of life in California. I like World history in general however being a Californian, i go out my way to learn that extra piece of history.

Somebody once said "Youtube is the invention of the time machine", and i agree. There are so many "lost films" and hidden footage that are pure treasure. Some make it to Youtube, some don't but every year i'm nodicing more and more personal family videos and such are being shared that show the average everyday life back then. Also great street life pedestrian perspectives.

That is not just any European tourist. That is Reyner Banham, an English architectural critic and writer. He is well known for his 1971 book Los Angeles: The Architecture of Four Ecologies. Banham was a big fan of LA's non-traditional urban form. Wonder what he would think today (he passed away in 1988).
