84: "Reducing the ISOKON to IKEA in 12 Functions" (or "If You Have the Arrogance To Tell Me How To Live, I the Artist Will React Emotionally") by Harry Ross (Sunday, September 27

Hannes Meyer, who was dismissed from his post as head of the Bauhaus in 1930, said that "architecture as the emotional act of the artist has no justification" absurdly thinking up the following "motives" for building a house:

1. sex life 2. sleeping habits 3. pets 4. gardening 5. personal hygiene 6. weather protection
7. hygiene in the home 8. car maintenance 9. cooking 10. heating 11. exposure to the sun 12. services
