Summary:
In Relive, leading historians of the media arts grapple with this dilemma: how can we speak of "new media" and at the same time write the histories of these arts?

Summary:
"Robinson believed that, if he looked at it hard enough, he could cause the surface of the city to reveal to him the molecular basis of historical events, and in this way he hoped to see into the future." In his sequence of films, Patrick Keiller retraces the hidden story of the places where we live, the cities and landscapes of our everyday lives. Now, in this brilliant collection of essays, he offers a new perspective on how Britain works and sees itself. He discusses the background to his work and its development – from surrealism to post-2008 economic catastrophe – and expands on what the films reveal. Referencing writers including Benjamin and Lefebvre, the essays follow his career since the late 1970s, exploring themes including the surrealist perception of the city; the relationship of architecture and film; how cities change over time, and how films represent this; as well as accounts of cross-country journeys involving historical figures, unexpected ideas and an urgent portrait of post-crash Britain.

Cet ouvrage se tient en équilibre entre pratique expérimentale et réflexions théoriques. C'est d'abord l'histoire d'un rêve qui finit par devenir réalité, tout au long d'une série de projets qui utilisent l'air comme matériau de construction. C'est ensuite une réflexion sur l'architecture énergétique. On ne le sait pas assez, mais l'histoire fourmille d'exemples d'expérimentations dans l'utilisation de l'air, visant à la maîtrise de l'environnement et à la construction d'un climat protégé. Le moment est peut-être venu d'en commencer l'inventaire. Après la présentation de quelques exemples d'espaces d'architecture conçus grâce à des appareils parmi les plus surprenants, ce livre se poursuit par la formulation d'un « Manifeste de l'architecture de l'air ». Il se conclut par une réflexion autour de « l'architecture de la bulle d'air », après la mise au point d'une expérience d'architecture énergétique intermittente.

Summary:
In this collection of essays, noted architectural historian and University of Texas professor Christopher Long (author of Adolf Loos on Trial) examines some of the many influences that shaped the work of the great architect Adolf Loos (1870–1933). Long’s finely tuned essays on subjects such as Loos' time in America, his famous essay "Ornament and Crime" and other subjects, are at once brief excursions into Loos’ rich and complex intellectual world, and an attempt to shed light on an important time in the history of architecture and design. Long is deeply interested in Loos as an architect, but he is even more drawn to his profound and unique intellect, and to the clarity of mind with which Loos managed to probe and understand the realities of modern life. Loos, as Long writes, saw that “the problem of modernism was not the problem of style, but the problem of understanding how the world was changing.”

Summary:
Politics and media are constantly dealing with the shifting definitions of facts, truth, reality, and fiction. Yet this is something the field of documentary art has been addressing for much longer. The contributions in this volume are from and about artists who explore the boundaries between fact and fiction by playing with the notion of the “documentary”. The book draws from a wide range of documentary art practices, such as working with archival materials or scrutinising one’s own subjective stance as an artist. It observes how artists deploy the fine line between fact and fiction as a means to imagine versions of the future, and how it can still have an impact in the world of today.
