Summary:
ROAM is an unconventional academic reader, looking at 'the Aesthetics of Mobility'. Under five themes - narrative, representation, glocalisation, telematics, velocity - ideas around what it is to 'roam' are explored, from theoritical texts to magazine style snippets of information. Against an architectural understanding of urban spaces and mobility. ROAM also engages with discourses from art, cultural studies, design and politics. In line with its unconventional approach, the texts in ROAM are designed to be read at different speeds, so that design projects are interspliced amongst essays and soundbites, provoking the reader with new views about our increasingly mobilised society.

Summary:
Formé par le célèbre architecte américain Frank Lloyd Wright, Roger D'Astous fut un des créateurs les plus féconds de la génération des pionniers québécois du modernisme après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Comme son maître, l'architecte montréalais fut avant tout un bâtisseur de maisons. Toujours fidèle aux principes de l'architecture organique, notamment l'intégration de l'œuvre au milieu naturel et le respect de la propriété des matériaux, il sut, grâce à une recherche persistante, concevoir des formes nouvelles qui lui permirent de créer un style personnel. Roger d'Astous apporta aussi une contribution exceptionnelle à l'architecture religieuse qui franchissait une étape de renouveau au moment où il entamait sa carrière. Sa production d'autres types d'édifices fut moins soutenue, mais presque chaque fois son intervention dans ces domaines a donné lieu à des œuvres qui se démarquent par leur originalité, comme en témoigne l'élégant Château Champlain à Montréal.

Summary:
Forced to find beauty in mediocrity, poetry in pragmatism, history in the absence of monuments and the future in the past, Crimson has been shaped by the experience of living and working in Rotterdam, the city that never thinks. Over the past seven years they have produced research projects, plans and initiatives that range from purely historical studies, book reviews and critiques of contemporary architecture to exhibitions, panoramas and urban planning schemes. For them, history is not a clear-cut period in the past but a total panoramic experience in which mythology, truth, writing, building and demolition intermingle. The Crimson historians don’t keep their distance, they dive right in. Too Blessed To Be Depressed is a coming-of-age book, one that shows the development of a practice and an attitude towards the outside world based not on analysis and simplification but on an endless quest for all the narratives, contradi ctions, and obsessions that make the city what it is. It presents an initial selection of work by Crimson divided among three themes: History (what to make of it, how to deal with it), Obsession (theirs along with those of others) and Top Down (the impact of large-scale infrastructural and other interventions on the city).
