Description:
125 Kilos of Books presents a selection of printed architectural works from the CCA collection dating from the fifteenth century to the present in order to provoke thought about what seems, at first sight, the most banal fact of any book: its size. With dimensions ranging from 10 centimetres to 1 metre, the works are explored through such themes as Buildings are Bigger(...)

From 1966 to 1968, Shadrach Woods and Cedric Price, two architects and educators in Paris and London, found themselves caught up in a vortex of change in education. Like architecture, the field was searching for new models; thinkers sought to reformulate the basic problems of education, rather than simply seeking new solutions to old questions. In this seminar 2014(...)

Description:
In this lecture, Amy Kulper locates architecture’s “digital turn” in 1988, when Thomas Knoll invented Photoshop. Originally developed as an image-editing software, Photoshop fit neatly within the long history of optical correction in the discipline. Yet its ubiquity today also prompts new questions. Does Photoshop simply introduce logics of adjustment, correction, and(...)
