SCI-Arc, a Ray Kappe invention, with his gang and their students, is up and running, beaming with energy from 1800 Berkeley Street in Santa Monica. A hot-rodded school of experimental architecture, trials and errors. By its environment and output it is the House of Glen Small, a Los Angeles architect at the time and a founding member of the school.

There are other kids hanging out in the school that aren't students but are interested in futurism, film and art. Everything is interchangeable with “kee klamps, steel pipes and 8'x 8' modular wood panels”. A low, plus or minus 600 dollars (no big money even then), gets you a semester with a young faculty of talented architects and artists.
