What about Gehry's "Dancing House" in Prague?

hey kids, this shouldn't really be under the 'space' section, but...just wondering about Linda Hutcheon's views on parody and pastiche. is she saying that because pastiche isn't really 'random cannibalization',(because of the 'aesthetic and historical past in postmodern architecture') that parody, rather than pastiche is a feature of postmodernism?
i;m confused...also, what does she mean when she says 'to include irony and play is never necessarily to exclude seriousness and purpose in postmodernist art'? any help would be ace.
this is also off the topic, but i'm curious to know:
a lecturer i had in first year mentioned in passing that some people think we are no longer in postmodernity, but that postmodernism has been superceded by post-post-modernism.
what on god's earth is post-postmodernism?
