Columbia University Global Networking Summer Workshop lectures
Distinguished architects-instructors of famous Universities worldwide will give lectures within the workshop GSAPP of Columbia University and Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. (14 Ιουλίου 2011)
In the lectures that will take place at July 14, within the workshop GSAPP in Thessaloniki, will participate: The R&sIE (n) | François Roche & Stéphanie Lavaux group.
This group works simultaneously through the architectural practice R&Sie(n) and the "new-territories" research organization. It also leads architectural research labs such as the Advanced Studio at Columbia University-GSAPP in New York. Their works are organized on three sets of themes:
/Practice as LifeSpan / Fiction as Practice / Research as Speculation /
-A fragile architecture which negotiates with the arrow of time, with the transitory one or what seems the being
-An operative and fictional architecture which tries to re-scenarize the relation with a situation, with an environment (like principle of reality)
-A speculative architecture which works out devices between robotics, mathematics, neurobiology and biochemistry (last research "Ive heard about" & "an architecture des humeurs")
At the same day, will follow the lecture by Eva Franch titled Εcologies of Excess and by Michael Young titled Technical Infidelity. Eva Franch Eva Franch i Gilabert is a Catalan architect, researcher, and teacher, founder of the Barcelona based OOAA (office of architectural affairs) and Director of Storefront for Art and Architecture in New York.
