Résumé:
In this collection of idiosyncratic lessons, architect and teacher Pier Paolo Tamburelli engages with the very foundations of architecture, proposing a series of new and open-ended perspectives on how we build the world. Developed for the ''Grundkurs'', or ''basic course'', at Vienna Technical University, Tamburelli’s lessons are presented through the annotated sketches that form the basis of his lectures – variously rough and precise, sarcastic and sincere, and always uniquely expressive. This volume is a rich visual sourcebook of architectural ideas that form an accessible and discursive introduction to the discipline – one which pauses on the road to grand theories to learn from the intuitive processes of notetaking, drawing, and association. Tamburelli’s lessons are based around a series of dialectic couples, including Roof/Wall, Shelter/Memory, and Language/Action. The pairs are experimental and often provocative, offering a framework to be used to climb in the direction of architecture. Tamburelli trusts in the capacity of images to suspend the restraints of more rigorous theoretical approaches, embraces the flexible wisdom of the note, and relishes the intrigue of the cryptic messages we leave for ourselves. Reproduced here in their entirety, these eight lessons offer countless routes towards, through, and around architecture, providing newcomers and experts alike with an intimate and refreshing encounter with a millennia-old discipline.

Résumé:
The art of producing color in movies is a fascinating process with a long history. Many people don’t realize that, as early as the 1890s, much of silent cinema was in color. They also may not know that women were the main workforce behind the techniques that first produced these effects, a tradition that continued as the practice evolved.

The art of producing color in movies is a fascinating process with a long history. Many people don’t realize that, as early as the 1890s, much of silent cinema was in color. They also may not know that women were the main workforce behind the techniques that first produced these effects, a tradition that continued as the practice evolved. Breakthroughs in color technology have created ongoing opportunities for filmmakers to experiment with new forms of narrative and emotional storytelling. Spectacular, psychological and sensory, color has become an integral part of the cinematic experience. From the earliest hand-painted films to Technicolor and today’s digital cinema, Color in Motion takes readers on a journey through the evolution and significance of color in film. Presenting insightful analysis, engaging case studies and inspiring conversations with scholars and experts in the field, with topics ranging from animation to the intersections of color and race in cinema, it traces the historical development of color technologies and their impact onscreen. Incorporating vivid images of color films throughout history—Serpentine Dance, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Fantasia, The Red Shoes, Vertigo, West Side Story, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Moonlight and more, as well as new multispectral scans of rare silent-era film prints—this essential volume celebrates color’s enduring influence on the medium of film.

Résumé:
This publication combines traditional natural materials and modern construction methods. From adobe to straw bales, traditional building materials are being adapted to meet code-required standards for health and safety in contemporary buildings around the world. Not only are they cost effective and environmentally friendly, but, when used correctly, these natural alternatives match the strength and durability of many mainstream construction materials. This book examines a broad range of traditional and modern natural construction methods, including straw-bale, light-clay, cob, adobe, rammed earth and pisé, earthbag, earth-sheltered, bamboo, and hybrid systems. It also covers key ecological design principles, as well as current engineering and building code requirements. Experts on each building system have contributed core chapters that explore the history, development, climatic appropriateness, environmental benefits, performance characteristics, construction techniques, and structural design principles for each method. More than 200 visuals depict both construction processes and completed structures. An extensive resource guide shows where to go for further information, training, and research. In an increasingly resource-conscious era, alternative construction is truly an idea whose time has come. Whether you're an architect, designer, student, or homeowner, this book will help you to combine indigenous building materials with modern construction systems and design standards to create low-impact, high-quality buildings that meet the highest levels of comfort, health, and safety.

Résumé:
Bien plus qu’un catalogue d’exposition, cet ouvrage de référence abondamment illustré présente les œuvres des vingt-cinq expositions de l’événement, et comprend des essais rédigés par des experts en art contemporain et en technologie. L’appareil photo n’est pas seulement un outil en attente d’être saisi et utilisé, mais aussi un instrument sophistiqué possédant ses propres lois, son propre fonctionnement, voire sa propre vie. Grâce à l’automatisation de ses mécanismes – et, plus récemment, l’intégration de l’ordinateur –, l’appareil photo est désormais capable d’intention et d’action. Il peut voir ce qui est invisible à l’oeil nu, fonctionner sans relâche, atteindre des endroits inaccessibles ou dangereux, et il peut aussi bien pénétrer le corps que voyager dans l’espace. On a longtemps considéré l’image comme étant l’aspect le plus important du processus photographique. Cependant, les artistes et les auteurs de Drone : l’image automatisée présentent une tout autre conception. Au centre de leurs préoccupations se trouve la relation en pleine mutation entre le corps et l’appareil photo, et la manière dont celui-ci peut opérer avec un minimum d’intervention. Tandis que l’humain s’appuie de plus en plus sur la technologie pour prolonger sa vision, l’appareil photo devient une extension du corps. De la télévision en circuit fermé à Google Street View, des contrôles à distance aux robots, des photomatons aux drones, l’appareil photo est en voie de redéfinir les conditions de l’existence humaine.

Résumé:
New Geographies 11: Extraterrestrial explores the historical and contemporary consequence of our planetary relationship with space. It interprets this duality through the conceptual lens of “extraterrestrial,” which engages an entangled zone of expanding practices in geography, landscape, and architecture, stretching Earth to space, and conversely, space to Earth. This issue questions the means through which space is forged as a condition extra to our own terra. Complicit within this imagination resides a deep political and economic logic that serves to territorialize outer space as an exception to, and extension of, Earth. These critical processes are revealed as not extra at all, but rather distinctly of terra. Through a series of written, photographic, and representational investigations, this edition of New Geographies builds on earlier studies of outer space from science, technology and society, as well as from the design disciplines, history, and critical geography. It reinforces the need for humanity’s changing relationship with outer space to be recorded, critiqued, and theorized from a breadth of academic traditions and projected within design discourse. This issue brings together experts contributing to the social, political, and cultural imaginary implicit in extraterrestrial. Three primary thematic territorial devices structure these explorations: a technologically constructed space between, a material culture constructed and discharged, and a space politically and economically reflective, all revealed through historical and contemporary society.

Résumé:
''The importance of a drawing is immense, because it’s the architect’s language,'' said the architect Louis Kahn to his masterclass in 1967. While most studies of Kahn focus on his built works or theory and use drawings mainly to illustrate these, this publication chooses to focus on Kahn's drawings as primary sources of insight into his architectural intelligence and imagination. Lavishly illustrated with over 900 high-quality reproductions of work by Kahn and his associates, incisively presented by a group of acclaimed architectural experts, ''The importance of a drawing'' is a deep immersion into Kahn’s work and his design process. A testament to Kahn’s masterly craft, this volume also makes a provocative primer on architectural representation by posing timely questions on how architects use drawings to see, learn, conjecture and reveal. Destined to become a standard reference on Kahn, this book is an essential addition to the libraries of established designers as well as students of architecture. The result of years of extensive research, ''The importance of a drawing'' contains original contributions and historical texts from Michael Merrill, Michael Benedikt, Michael B. Cadwell, Louis I. Kahn, Nathaniel Kahn, Sue Ann Kahn, David Leatherbarrow, Michael J. Lewis, Robert McCarter, Marshall D. Meyers, Jane Murphy, Harriet Pattison, Gina Pollara, Colin Rowe, David Van Zanten, Richard Wesley and William Whitaker.

Résumé:
In 1940, Hans Knoll founded a company in New York that soon earned a reputation for its progressive line of furniture. Florence Schust joined the firm and helped establish its interior design division, the Knoll Planning Unit. In 1947, the year after their marriage, Hans and Florence Knoll added a third division, Knoll Textiles, which brought textile production in line with a modern sensibility that used color and texture as primary design elements. In the early years, the company hired leading proponents of modern design as well as young, untried designers to create textile patterns. The division thrived in the late 1940s through 1960s and, in the following decade, adopted a more international outlook as design direction shifted to Europe. In the late 1970s and 1980s, Knoll tapped fashion designers and architects to bolster its brand. The pioneering use of new materials and a commitment to innovative design have remained Knoll's hallmarks to the present day. With essays by experts, biographies of about eighty designers, and images of textiles, drawings, furniture, and ephemera, Knoll Textiles, 1945-2010 is the first comprehensive study devoted to a leading contributor to modern textile design. Highlighting the individuals and ideas that helped shape Knoll Textiles over the years, this book brings the Knoll brand and the role of textiles in the history of design to the forefront of public attention.

Résumé:
A la fin du XIXe siècle, dans les grandes cités européennes, les élites admettent que le développement des villes ne peut être laissé au hasard et que, pour parer à ses conséquences parfois désastreuses, il faut le contrôler. " Faire la ville " étudie la naissance de cette prise en main politique et technique de la cité - l'urbanisme - et son développement tout au long du XXe siècle, non pas entendu seulement comme une technique ou une discipline mais aussi comme un champ : le produit conjoint et souvent contradictoire de politiques publiques, de divers savoirs et savoir-faire ou connaissances et d'une série de professions ou plutôt de métiers. Histoire des idées urbanistiques, histoire des villes et de leurs élites, histoire du mouvement réformateur autour de 1900, histoire des politiques urbaines, autant de cadres différents qui déterminent et sous-tendent la compréhension qu'il est possible d'avoir des origines de ces métiers de l'urbanisme dont ce livre parcourt l'évolution, la montée en puissance, depuis les experts sanitaires de la fin du XIXe siècle, puis les géomètres, en passant par la fondation, en 1943, du corps des urbanistes et le rôle de plus en plus fort de l'Etat et des agences publiques d'aménagement. Depuis les années quatre-vingt le champ de l'aménagement doit se penser tout autrement. Cette histoire des métiers de l'urbanisme apporte un éclairage sur ce monde flou et secret, sensible aux fluctuations de l'espace-temps urbain, artisan direct du territoire et arbitre engagé des enjeux qui s'y opposent.
