2. Program Matters : From Drawing to Code
Sammanfattning : Whether on paper, on site or mediating between both, means for reading and writing geometry have been central to architecture: the use of compasses and rulers, strings, pins, stakes or plumb-lines enabled the analysis and reproduction of congruent figures on different surfaces since antiquity, and from the renaissance onwards, the consistent planar representation of three-dimensional shapes by means of projective geometry. Tacitly through practice, or explicitly encoded in classical geometry, the operational syntaxes of drawing instruments, real or imaginary, have determined the geometric literacies regulating the production and instruction of architecture.

The project adopts the garage and the penthouse as sites of enquiry, which means thinking through architecture as a cultural phenomenon, the agency of which includes but is not limited to spatial design, material compositions, visual representations, and historical contexts.

5. Spaces of Writing History in the Postcolonial City : Edits, Erasures, Inscriptions
Sammanfattning : The search for a pre-colonial identity has occupied post-colonial cities since independence, becoming intertwined with modern nation-building projects. Consequently, an active agenda of reframing heritage has emerged that is strongly connected to the process of revisiting and rewriting the past. LÄS MER
