Summary:
Les dépenses liées au logement représentent près du cinquième du budget des ménages. Le manque de logements est un thème récurrent, souvent douloureux, du débat public. Aussi, l'Etat et les collectivités territoriales consacrent des sommes considérables à ce secteur, et la question du logement soulève des polémiques récurrentes qui s'alimentent de nombreuses contradictions. L'auteur souligne ici la complexité de ces sujets en présentant simultanément les connaissances disponibles et les diverses thèses en présence. L'ouvrage s'organise autour de quinze grandes interrogations dont l'auteur ne craint pas de présenter les incertitudes et les controverses. Fruit de plusieurs années d'enseignement au Cycle d'Urbanisme de Sciences Po, les questions essentielles comme l'accès au crédit, les besoins en logement, la vente HLM, etc., sont davantage traitées pour en comprendre les enjeux que sur le plan des techniques propres aux économistes ou autres acteurs.

Summary:
Today’s designers are creating compelling atmospheres and interactive experiences by merging hardware and software with architecture and design. This book is a collection of this innovative work produced where virtual realms meet the real world and where dataflow confronts the human senses. It presents an international spectrum of interdisciplinary projects at the intersection of laboratory, trade show, and urban space that play with the new frontiers of perception, interaction, and staging created by current technology. The work reveals how technology is fundamentally changing and expanding strategies for the targeted use of architecture, art, communication, and design for the future.

In recent years, the boundaries between art and design have become more and more blurred. It is not the object itself, but rather its economic functionality that determines where design stops and art begins - and this functionality is reassessed at every link in the chain of the object s dissemination.

Summary:
In recent years, the boundaries between art and design have become more and more blurred. It is not the object itself, but rather its economic functionality that determines where design stops and art begins - and this functionality is reassessed at every link in the chain of the object s dissemination. In fact, it is often customs officials who subjectively decide what constitutes art and design based on their personal views and erratic local tax laws. Taxing Art is an insightful case study by Beta Tank that illustrates the influence of tax laws on art and creativity. The Berlin-based studio created a series of blended work, which was partly handmade and partly machine-made, and sent it around the world. Naturally, this resulted in differing customs duties. The book is a buoyantly ironic, clever documentation and analysis of the effect of traditional, bureaucratic procedures on innovative work. Beta Tank hopes this publication will fuel a dialog about how true innovation and creativity, that which crosses boundaries and moves into the unknown, can be actively pursued and matched within existing categories and assumptions about business practices and results. The book puts a spotlight on the effect that tax laws have on art and design.
