The Supercrit event was reviewed in AD May/June 2004

'Cedric was involved in something better than building, because it involved challenging the idea of what it was you wanted to build, and why.' Paul Finch, editor of Architectural Review

'We should see Cedric's work as part of an opportunity to remake great aspects of Britain.' Jeremy Melvin, architectural critic.

'...what I am talking about in the Thinkbelt... [is] the capacity for activities to change as a result of thoughts changing. And the resulting architecture can last as long as these thoughts are current.' Cedric Price
