Résumé:
For the fourth time in the history of the magazine, the curation of this issue is shared between two people: Sónia Vaz Borges and Léopold Lambert. This issue takes us through radical education initiatives in several geographies in the world, but also in several spaces as different as the mangrove, the prison, the street, the kitchen table, or reading groups. By these varied locations, we mean to question both the material conditions of education, as well as its contents, placing it as a key instrument of revolutionary movements both historically and in the present.

Résumé:
The second issue of Verb asks: What can we really build? Verb Matters explores the formal and material possibilities for construction in our present information era, with its extensive data processing, global networking, and increasingly blurred distinctions between natural matter and artificial technology. This critical itinerary begins with reflections on the results of sophisticated ideas applied to the shaping of buildings including Toyo Ito's ephemeral work, recent attention to inflatable architecture and building with air, and the low tech approach of practitioners like LOT/EK. Consideration of the growing potential of current technology is also examined in a piece equating recent sneaker design technology to that of car manufacturing, as well as the use of artificial intelligence in home control networks at MIT's "Media House" project. Colorful, tactile, dense, and packaged in its own very contemporary design, Verb Matters remains devoted to cutting-edge issues in architecture and design. includes contributions from Toyo Ito, Greg Lynn, LOT/EK, Klein & Dytham, and Sherry Turkle

Résumé:
"Perspecta 33 : mining autonomy" is a collection of essays that examines the evolving legacy of architectural autonomy and its relationship to architecture's potential to act as a critical agent. As its name implies, "Mining autonomy" both draws from the richness of the intellectual project of autonomy and perhaps does some damage to its suppositions by forwarding the idea that the contemporary position of critical practice has shifted from the autonomous center to the periphery of the architectural discipline.

The shift from modern to digital systems of design and production 'opens up' a material work to a deeper relationship between author and perceiver. From the classical work to the modern object, and from the modern industrial to 'computerised' procedures, the interplay between author and user has become closer, more direct, more open.

Résumé:
The shift from modern to digital systems of design and production 'opens up' a material work to a deeper relationship between author and perceiver. From the classical work to the modern object, and from the modern industrial to 'computerised' procedures, the interplay between author and user has become closer, more direct, more open. How does this increasing complicity affect architectural practice? How can architecture be conceived as a more fluid informational development? This first issue of the new boogazine "Verb" deals with the present relationship between information and authorship in architectural practice, featuring works and texts by Manuel de Landa, Jorge Wagensberg, FOA, Sadar & Vuga, Njiric+Njiric, Lacaton-Vassal .

Résumé:
Issue 229 of the magazine Quaderns explores the theme of the border in its literal sense -the border as a political and cultural separation between countries or geographical areas- but also as a place which gives rise to cultural crossovers alongside its function as separator. This issue looks firstly at the transformation of two formerly divided cities, Berlin and Beirut, which are currently undergoing processes of integration of what used to be opposing sectors and of recovery as city-centre spaces of the wastelands generated by division. Then it analyses the present-day situation in two border areas characterised by strong economic and cultural contrasts between the two sides of the dividing line: the border between the United States and Mexico, and the Strait of Gibraltar. The works of architects and artists who have recently worked in these places are taken as a starting point for debate about the strategies brought to bear in frontier territory by urbanism, art and architecture. The issue includes an introductory text by Saskia Sassen and features Mathias Sauerbruch on Berlin, Álvaro Siza on Ceuta, Rafael Moneo and Ousama Kabbani on Beirut, and Gloria Anzaldúa on the border between Mexico and the United States. It also presents a series of works actually carried out in these cities by Sauerbruch & Hutton, Álvaro Siza and Rafael Moneo, along with projects by Berger-Parkinnen, Kollhof & Kollhoff, Gustav Lange, OMA/Rem Koolhaas and Peter Zumthor, among others, and features a dossier with projects carried out in other countries by Catalan architects, including works by Miralles-Tagliabue, J. Ll. Mateo and Elías Torres. The theme is completed by an extensive photo reportage by Camilo José Vergara about the Mexican border.
