Page "Rem Koolhaas" Paragraph 11

Delirious New York set the pace for Koolhaas's career.

Koolhaas celebrates the " chance-like " nature of city life: " The City is an addictive machine from which there is no escape " " Rem Koolhaas ... defined the city as a collection of “ red hot spots .” ( Anna Klingmann ).

As Koolhaas himself has acknowledged, this approach had already been evident in the Japanese Metabolist Movement in the 1960s and early 1970s.
