Résumé:

"Considering case studies from the 1960s to today, this annotated collection of primary documents presents evidence of experimental venues, methods, and tools that architects have used to research and shape the urgent issues of their time. Many of these begin as improvisations on traditional forms like conferences, books, and university studios before developing in unexpected directions. Together, they reveal how architects can construct a cultural agenda without the intervention of built form."--Page 4 of cover.
