Abu Dhabi's Performing Arts Center: Really Strange

I hope that whoever unleashed architect Zaha Hadid on the Abu Dhabi Performing Arts Centre understood the possible consequences.

The blog post "Exhibition Highlights: Abu Dhabi Performing Arts Centre model," and "dezeen" design magazine's "More images of Hadid’s Emirates centre" show a beautiful (my opinion), and distinctly non-traditional piece of sculpture that doubles as a building.

The thing's style reminds me of the alien technology of "Earth: Final Conflict" (1997-2002), which probably means that it's a style that emerged while I was distracted by a hairpin bend in my career path.
