Summary:
Issue 38: Choreography inquires into how memories, histories, and rituals transform individuals into groups, words into policies, threads into textures, notes into dances, gestures into positions. Today, choreography thrives not only on stage but through social media, where short videos compress movement into consumable poses—endlessly repeated and algorithmically rewarded. Here the body mirrors Mark Fisher’s architecture of capitalist realism: gestures circulate even as they are emptied of meaning, as if there were no alternative but to keep performing. It is a dance of reflexive impotence, where participation feels inevitable and refusal unimaginable.

Aucune machine n’a jamais été inventée pour ralentir. Si nos outils excellent dans l’art de l’accélération, aucun n’a été conçu pour suspendre le mouvement. La « dromologie (1) » de Paul Virilio a fait de la vitesse la mesure même d’un progrès dont l’ombre portée serait l’accident.

Summary:
Aucune machine n’a jamais été inventée pour ralentir. Si nos outils excellent dans l’art de l’accélération, aucun n’a été conçu pour suspendre le mouvement. La « dromologie (1) » de Paul Virilio a fait de la vitesse la mesure même d’un progrès dont l’ombre portée serait l’accident. Dans la théorie de l’accélération sociale, Hartmut Rosa rappelle que le présent est une période durant laquelle nos connaissances, nos institutions, nos techniques ou nos habitudes restent suffisamment stables pour orienter notre action. Il façonne le concept de « rétrécissement de présent », dans lequel la fragmentation de nos expériences, les obsolescences rapides nous privent du temps d’habiter les choses (2). Notre époque produit du mouvement plus vite qu’elle ne produit du sens. Se « présenter » à nouveau, un peu plus longtemps, est alors une tentative de faire sens.

Volume 69: Stress management
$43.95
(available in store)
Summary:
Architecture is built on pressure. It resists gravity and structures how we live and work, but it also produces stress through extraction, overproduction, and exhaustive practices around materials, landscapes, and bodies. What does it mean to manage stress? What happens when the very discipline meant to relieve it becomes a source of pressure itself? This issue tackles(...)

Summary:
Architecture is built on pressure. It resists gravity and structures how we live and work, but it also produces stress through extraction, overproduction, and exhaustive practices around materials, landscapes, and bodies. What does it mean to manage stress? What happens when the very discipline meant to relieve it becomes a source of pressure itself? This issue tackles the tension head-on. Through contributions from 20 experts and thinkers in the field, it traces and examines how architecture absorbs, displaces, manages, and transforms stress, while pointing towards practices of care, collaboration, and repair that put forward other ways of living and working under pressure.

Summary:
Based in Mallorca, Aulets is an architecture practice working across design, research, teaching, and action. It understands architecture as a means of making a territory habitable for a community through the resources available in a specific place. The work of Aulets therefore extends beyond constructing buildings to encompass the activation of new productive processes and the transformation of these practices within schools of architecture. Its activities range from regeneration of vulnerable neighbourhoods and the adaptation of public space for climate change to initiatives such as forest conservation. The magazine introduces Aulets across three sections: Earth, Stone, and Wood.

Transparency is no longer the only horizon for glass. AV Proyectos 135 explores the contemporary possibilities of this material through seven works by Max Núñez, MVRDV, or Snøhetta, among other offices, in which blocks, slats, and undulating panels transform light and create complex atmospheres. The issue also includes a feature dedicated to AgwA, the Belgian firm that has developed its practice with a focus on revitalizing existing structures through precise interventions open to collective uses. Meanwhile, Ensamble Studio presents The Cloud visitors’ center in Seoul – still under construction – conceived as a habitable topography. The overview extends to the Venice Art Biennale, with its focus on minor forms and memory processes, and is rounded out by the renovation of the Louvre by Annabelle Selldorf and Studios Architecture; OMA’s Roma Continua urban plan; and the expansion of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Panama by Palma and Taller TO. The issue concludes with a selection of products and Barbara Iweins’s personal photo archive.

Summary:
a+u’s April issue features BAST (Bureau Architectures Sans Titre), based in Toulouse, France. Laurent Didier, Mathieu Le Ny, and Louis Léger have structured a worker-owned cooperative to pursue a research-based approach to architecture. Instead of asserting a singular vision across the board, they inform each project with site-specific decisions and structural logic. Engaging with modest programs, including the refurbishment projects M47 and E53, BAST carves out new spaces while preserving the integrity of the local vernacular building. New constructions, such as M37, present new methods to connect with the site. The 18 projects presented in this issue focus not only on the finished building, but also on the dynamism of the construction site, where constant calibrations take place between human, site, and material.

Summary:
When Ansgar Schulz first visits Adorf, a small town in Saxony, it is raining. For centuries, freshwater pearl mussels have been fished from the Elster river here; a local heritage museum earmarked for expansion documents their rich history. Watching rainwater trace its way across the existing roofs, the architect imagines the same for the facade of the new building. With its double-curved canopy, the Mother-of-Pearl Museum connects two existing structures. Clad in waterproof concrete, the building lets water run quietly down its surface – as if it were always meant to. Outside, the performative detail becomes a sensory echo of the pearl mussels inside. Solid construction is associated with weight, permanence, and immobility. This issue argues otherwise. Hand-pressed bricks, wax-treated rammed earth composed of demolition material, cyclopean concrete from limestone and rubble, hemp lime as a renewable material for the future – each detail explores what masonry can do when it is rethought. Does the heaviest building material have the lightest future?

The theme of this edition of Noema was conceived in early 2024. At that time, we had in mind the epochal shift from the paradigm of globalization, in which markets, trade and technology cross borders, to “the Planetary,” where we recognize that the whole Earth system embeds and entangles human civilization in its habitat.

Summary:
This ninth issue of e-flux Index interweaves a selection of pieces published by e-flux throughout the Summer of 2025, and is divided into two parts. In six chapters that index the state of ''Art and Theory Today'', the first part revisits the primal scene of the Theory Wars—the tenor of which has changed, from an urgent ideological contest between humanist objectivity and postmodern relativism, to a more even-handed, pragmatic, and pluralist one, in the decades since. It brings together material that the various independent publishing arms of e-flux published around the theme of the often-fraught relations between theory and (artistic, architectural, pedagogic, political) practice. The second part of Index #9, ''This world, this mutilated space'', moves onto the terrain of the Forever War, examining the resilience shown by artistic communities living on its multiplying frontlines, the deepening climate war against the nonhuman world, and those displaced by these processes of destruction. As international relations "realists" like John Mearsheimer have regularly observed on the 24/7 war-pundit circuit since the illegal strike on Ayatollah Khamenei two months ago, the Iran War is a conflict which also displays no "logical sequence of thought"—which has no theory. This is a war whose aggressors (Netanyahu–Ben-Gvir and Trump–Hegseth–Rubio) seem less in hock to Carl von Clausewitz than to the instant dopaminergic kill-feed of a fifteen-year-old hooked on ''Call of Duty'' missions—with strategy configured as content, war as engagement metric.
