Summary:
This 53rd issue of The Funambulist mostly consists of translations into thirty "non-hegemonic" languages of a text Indigenous Mixe writer Yásnaya Elena Aguilar Gil wrote for the magazine. Entitled "Languages and Nation-States" and originally written in Ayuujk, it was then translated into Spanish, English, and French to serve as vehicles towards these thirty translations into Albanian, Armenian, Bahasa Indonesia, Bambara, Basque, Bosnian, Guyanese Creole, Haitian Creole, Hausa, Hawaiian, Inuktitut, Irish, Kashmiri (Koshur), Kikongo, Kurdish, Lao, Mapuche, Mauritian Creole, Maya, Mongolian, Quechua, Rroma, Shona, Somali, Swahili, Tagalog, Tamazight, Tamil, and Uzbek.

Summary:
En considérant l’histoire académique de l’architecture, une peinture sert toujours d’argument d’autorité pour expliciter un courant, un moment. En un coup d’œil, la peinture résume. Elle dépasse son contexte d’émergence et devient ce que d’aucuns en veulent. L’historiographie apprécie ces accointances géné- rationnelles entre les architectes et les peintres. Les travaux y(...)

Summary:
En considérant l’histoire académique de l’architecture, une peinture sert toujours d’argument d’autorité pour expliciter un courant, un moment. En un coup d’œil, la peinture résume. Elle dépasse son contexte d’émergence et devient ce que d’aucuns en veulent. L’historiographie apprécie ces accointances géné- rationnelles entre les architectes et les peintres. Les travaux y deviennent les témoins d’une affinité tant amicale, théorique et sociale. L’effet de loupe d’un détail ignoré, d’une anecdote, prend alors la vigueur de tout ce qui passe à travers cette appropriation. Inaugurant les catalogues des expositions marquantes, ces reproductions convoquent de nouveaux imaginaires, souvent en réaction à la période précédente. Les formats et la facture des tableaux disparaissent. Seule demeure une petite vignette. Elle illustre les propos de l’auteur·ice et donne une clé de lecture aux projets de la publication qu’elle précède.

Summary:
En matière d’architecture, la « propriété privée » instaure une coupure pour se priver du monde et priver le monde d’une de ses parts. Concept juridique fondamentalement contradictoire, la propriété revêt un caractère absolu qu’il s’agit de relativiser, de limiter, et de circonscrire, dans le même moment. Mur, clôture, haie, ou simple signe, les formes architecturales de propriété se manifestent en bordure pour en instaurer le contour et instituer le domaine. Ce sont ces limites de propriété, physiques et juridiques, sources de conflits et d’inventions qui sont les protagonistes récurrentes de ce numéro.

Summary:
Errant Journal No. 6 takes up the topic of debt in order to challenge the idea that it is something rational, natural or inevitable. The contributions in the issue address the ways in which debt and its language hold power over us and organize obedience; from its role in geopolitics to its associations with shame and guilt through moral and religious connotations. Together they reveal how the personal is always connected to the structural. Crucially, the issue also features contributions that address ways of thinking about debt outside Western/neoliberal hegemony and introduce instances of resistance to the violence and inequality inherent to debt. We’ve made additional space in this issue to address the intensified struggle for Palestinian liberation and its relations to debt/guilt and finance.

This issue includes writing from Katie Hawthorne, Peter Simpson, Sam Goncalves, Harry Harris, Eilidh Akilade, Kenza Marland and Heather Parry alongside illustrations from Bridie Cheeseman, Lizzie Lomax, Rosie Ryott, Frieda Ruh and Lucy Grainge. It’s about getting through breakups, sitting through theatre, and pushing projects through to the end. It’s also about motorways, worms and undersea cables.There’s an original cover by Ot Pascoe and interviews with Jonny Hannah and Max Machen. Read it, rip it, pin it to your wall. There’ll only be 600 copies ever made, and thanks to mechanical misregistration and the quirks of riso printing, each one ends up unique in some way.

Summary:
It is not without irony that in an age characterised by the dissolution of certainty – a consequence of digital dematerialisation and the catastrophic destabilisation of our social institutions and natural world – architecture, for so long the repository for our myths and the vessel for our intangible narratives and rituals, has been stripped bare. Increasingly preoccupied with the physical, material and measurable, architecture has forfeited its original purpose as a mediating link between the tacit and the tangible. Drawing on the current resurgence and our enduring cultural fascination with the ethereal and uncanny, this AD frames the spectral as a deconstructive gesture that undermines the fixedness and certainties of binary logics, a means to develop new practices and positions from which to address our contemporary uncertainties. Gathering a body of work that explores and speculates on architecture’s long romance with the incorporeal, the issue is intended as a catalyst through which latency, contingency and indeterminacy, inherent characteristics of the architectural condition, can once more be valued, cultivated and nurtured.

Every year, nearly 100 billion tonnes of raw material globally is extracted from the earth – approximately half of it for construction purposes. The construction industry is responsible for an estimated third of global waste, while reuse of construction materials is not increasing fast enough.

Summary:
Every year, nearly 100 billion tonnes of raw material globally is extracted from the earth – approximately half of it for construction purposes. The construction industry is responsible for an estimated third of global waste, while reuse of construction materials is not increasing fast enough. The same sector accounts for at least 40 per cent of global carbon-dioxide emissions. There is thus an urgent need to showcase how novel approaches in digital fabrication might be able to enhance thesustainability of buildings and transform construction. Featuring specialists from architecture, engineering and materials science, this AD presents innovative research and new construction systems, approaches and trends to demonstrate how existing methods and unique concepts that utilise cutting-edge technologies can, in a short space of time, help us advance towards a culture of sustainable construction. It focuses on digital design and manufacturing, including XR technologies, and highlights unique ways to build with earth or concrete.
