Résumé:
Ulrich Franzen was born in 1921 in Düsseldorf and studied architecture with Marcel Breuer and Walter Gropius at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. From 1950-55 he worked for I.M. Pei before opening his own architectural office in New York in 1955. His encounter with Modernism had a determining influence on his work, and Franzen soon developed his own individual architectural language. Reference to context and collage, the bringing together of different elements in free composition are typical themes in his work. The spectrum of his architecture spans elegant, generous residences and severe, rigorous buildings for industry and research. He has also worked on projects in urban development.

Résumé:
In an age of digital technology and renewed anxiety about media piracy, Inherent Vice revisits the recent analog past with an eye-opening exploration of the aesthetic and legal innovations of home video. Analog videotape was introduced to consumers as a blank format, essentially as a bootleg technology, for recording television without permission. The studios initially resisted VCRs and began legal action to oppose their marketing. In turn, U.S. courts controversially reinterpreted copyright law to protect users’ right to record, while content owners eventually developed ways to exploit the video market. Lucas Hilderbrand shows how videotape and fair use offer essential lessons relevant to contemporary progressive media policy.

Résumé:
Eyal Weizman is one of the world’s leading experts on the relationship between violence, conflict, and the environment, both built and natural. As director of the organization Forensic Architecture, he and his team of interdisciplinary researchers have spent decades documenting state crimes and human rights violations around the world, including in Israel and Palestine. Since 2023, the group has worked to produce evidence for the International Court of Justice’s case against Israel. In this revelatory new project, Weizman draws on that research to bring us on an eye-opening journey through the "deep cartography" of the area, from Gaza’s subterranean tunnels up to its militarized topography, settlements, and barriers.

Résumé:
With eye-opening statistics, original data, and vivid portraits of people who live alone, renowned sociologist Eric Klinenberg upends conventional wisdom to deliver the definitive take on how the rise of going solo is transforming the American experience. Klinenberg shows that most single dwellers—whether in their twenties or eighties—are deeply engaged in social and civic life. There's even evidence that people who live alone enjoy better mental health and have more environmentally sustainable lifestyles. Drawing on more than three hundred in-depth interviews, Klinenberg presents a revelatory examination of the most significant demographic shift since the baby boom and offers surprising insights on the benefits of this epochal change.

Résumé:
‘GRAM’ is a multiple research tool that combines graphic investigations with architectural explorations, where the publication is just a pretence and only the process matters. Each step is considered a potential research topic. The six architectural offices featured here – Fala Atelier, Norell/Rodhe, Razze Dazzle, Kosmos, Bast, and Maio – are all less than ten years old and consist of less than ten people. The profiles are based on a framework of dialogue that leads to theoretical or practical outcomes, in turn opening up the thought processes behind the production of space. ‘GRAM’ is a re-transcription of these conversations with additional annotations and translations.
