27 sounds like Jack Bauer with three extra hours, but in fact it's the title of a rather ambitious design documentation and learning project currently underway.

27 is a journey into the heart of contemporary European architecture, under a permanent state of mutation. 27 is a joint venture between a filmmaker, two architects and a graphic designer travelling together to meet people engaged in the process of making the Europe of tomorrow. 27 is a trip to 27 countries and 27 practices, all led by young architects recognized in their own country and abroad.

Local Architecture Network, FatCat Films and graphic design firm Undo-Redo began collaborating last year to produce the films. Check out the teaser:

This looks like just another gropup of pathetic, conventional modernist poseurs. Nothing truly radical, like truly independent architects rejecting the moderist straitjacket and bravely exploring the forbiddel world of pre-modernist architecture. Modernist ideolody is as strictly defined and controlled as communist ideology before 1989. But the rebellion against moderinst dogmatism is inevitable. Viva la REVOLUTION.
