Summary:
Durant l’année 1980, Victor Bockris a organisé et enregistré quatre rencontres entre William Burroughs et Andy Warhol. Des rencontres informelles qui eurent lieu à la Factory et dans des restaurants new-yorkais. Le pape du Pop Art et la figure de la Beat Generation avaient forcément des choses à se dire. Warhol et Burroughs, au cours de ces quatre rendez-vous, vont faire ensemble le tour de la Factory, discuter l’œuvre que Warhol vient d’achever, parler de tout, de rien, de culture, de sexe, d’amour, de drogues et de vodka-tonic. Parfois, à leur table, d’autres personnalités, de passage, s’invitent. C’est ainsi que Mick Jagger apparaît, en guest star de luxe. Agrémenté d’une cinquantaine de photos, Warhol-Burroughs : Conversations balaie largement le paysage culturel, capte l’ambiance, l’effervescence de ce début de la décennie 1980 et témoigne d’une amitié naissante, d’une complicité entre ces deux grandes figures de la culture américaine. Victor Bockris est journaliste, il a accompagné Andy Warhol dans l’aventure de la Factory et a écrit de nombreux ouvrages et articles sur cette période et ses principaux protagonistes (Lou Reed, Warhol entre autres). Il prétend que c’est Andy Warhol qui lui a appris à mener une interview. Son conseil : « Ne prépare jamais tes questions. Fais comme s’il s’agissait d’un cocktail. »

Summary:
Libraries have existed for millennia, but today the library field is searching for solid footing in an increasingly fragmented (and increasingly digital) information environment. What is librarianship when it is unmoored from cataloging, books, buildings, and committees? In "The Atlas of New Librarianship", R. David Lankes offers a guide to this new landscape for practitioners. He describes a new librarianship based not on books and artifacts but on knowledge and learning; and he suggests a new mission for librarians: to improve society through facilitating knowledge creation in their communities. The vision for a new librarianship must go beyond finding library-related uses for information technology and the Internet; it must provide a durable foundation for the field. Lankes recasts librarianship and library practice using the fundamental concept that knowledge is created though conversation. New librarians approach their work as facilitators of conversation; they seek to enrich, capture, store, and disseminate the conversations of their communities.

Summary:
This book is built from images, drawings and texts. These three types of documents are exposed in an elemental way, alone in the center of each page and isolated from the project to which they belong. The authors organized the inventory from a set of documents that first claim their independence and then undergo a peer dialogue. These two actions may seem to cancel each other out, but they actually both reaffirm a very basic idea, which holds that the interest of a conversation is closely related to the consistency of its interlocutors. The conversation that arises from each diptych is precisely what stimulates the appearance of a tacit project. A project that bypasses material organizations and that is only possible due the intervention of an active reader, capable of establishing connections between the printed documents. This book is a twofold response to what are the disciplinary assets that the architecture studio Adamo-Faiden produces and how they should be organized to accurately delineate the authors’ interests.
