Summary:
The rhythmograms of Heinrich Heidersberger (1906-2006) are intricately curved compositions of pure light that weave together abstract figures, organisms and space. The artist created these complex light patterns during the 1950s and 1960s, capturing the invisible and elusive worlds of time and motion in a single frame. Widely known as an architectural photographer of(...)

Summary:
The rhythmograms of Heinrich Heidersberger (1906-2006) are intricately curved compositions of pure light that weave together abstract figures, organisms and space. The artist created these complex light patterns during the 1950s and 1960s, capturing the invisible and elusive worlds of time and motion in a single frame. Widely known as an architectural photographer of postwar modernism, Heidersberger's little-known rhythmograms serve as a fascinating bridge between the work of early modernists and the future of algorithmic art and architecture. This is the first critical study of these rhythmograms in all their delicate detail.

Summary:
Bridges, the least known and understood of China's many wonders, are one of its most striking and resilient feats of architectural prowess. Chinese Bridges brings together a thorough look at these marvels from one of the world's leading experts on Chinese culture and historical geography, Ronald G. Knapp. While many consider bridges to be merely utilitarian, the bridges of China move beyond that stereotype, as many are undeniably dramatic, even majestic and daring. Chinese Bridges illustrates in detail 20 well-preserved ancient bridges, along with descriptions and essays on the distinctive architectural elements shared by the various designs. For the first time in an English-language book, Chinese Bridges records scores of newly discovered bridges across China's vast landscape, illustrated with over 400 color photographs, as well as woodblock prints, historic images, paintings and line drawings. Ronald G. Knapp has been carrying out research on cultural and historical geography in China's countryside since 1965. Currently SUNY Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the State University of New York, New Paltz, he is the author or contributing editor of more than a dozen books.

Summary:
Between 1998 and 2005, the Structural Engineers Association of New York, along with the Museum of Modern Art's Department of Architecture and Design and the School of Architecture at both Princeton University and MIT, co-sponsored a lecture series in honor of the renowned Spanish and Mexican structural engineer Felix Candela, who led the early exploration of concrete shell structures. These lectures are now available in the format of this book: discussed is the work of the Uruguayan engineer Eladio Dieste, who pioneered the use of thin, light-filled shell structures in masonry. Cecil Balmond recounts his collaboration with architects Rem Koolhaas and Daniel Libeskind. The Swiss bridge designer Christian Menn discusses his iconic long-span prestressed concrete bridges, including the new Charles River Bridge in Boston. Leslie E. Robertson, who is especially known for his work on the structural design of the World Trade Center complex with Minoru Yamasaki, discusses this design along with many other projects. Mamoru Kawaguchi recounts his own work in fabric structures and his collaboration with architects Kenzo Tange and Arata Isozaki. Joerg Schlaich talks about his creative collaboration with Frank Gehry. Heinz Isler's contribution is in the aerea of freeform concrete shell constructions. David Billington and Maria Garlock recount the work of master builders Anton Tedesko, Pier Luigi Nervi, Felix Candela, and Heinz Isler.
