Résumé:
Archigram, the magazine published irregularly between 1961 and 1970, and the name of the group that created it, is among the most significant phenomena to emerge in post-war architectural culture. The wired environments first advertised in the magazine's pages formulated an architectural vocabulary of metamorphosis and obsolescence. This vocabulary cross-pollinated industrial and digital technology at the same time as complex systems were becoming commercially available and more widely used.

While the US was the world's greatest economic, scientific and cultural force during the twentieth century, it now appears to be obsessed with its own decline. In this obsession the changing patterns of consumption and demand often result in an architectural redundancy where buildings exist as a form of by-product or residue.

Résumé:
In Re-collection, Richard Rinehart and JonIppolito argue that the vulnerability of new media art illustrates a larger crisis for social memory. They describe a variable media approach to rescuing new media,distributed across producers and consumers who can choose appropriate strategies for each endangered work. New media art poses novel preservation and conservation dilemmas. Given the ephemerality of their mediums, software art, installation art, and interactive games may be heading to obsolescence and oblivion.

Résumé:
Designers today are striving to transform our relationship with the natural world. Although humans are intrinsically linked to nature, our actions have frayed this relationship, forcing designers to think more intentionally and to consider the impact of every design decision, from an artifact's manufacture and use to its obsolescence. As a result, designers are aligning with biologists, engineers, agriculturists, environmentalists and many other specialists to design a more harmonious and regenerative future. Based on these new partnerships, designers are asking different questions and anticipating future challenges, which not only change the design process, but also what design means.

Résumé:
ette paraphrase du fameux Ceci n’est pas une pipe de Magritte (1928) pose la question du rapport entre un objet – en l’occurence, une bouteille –, son statut et sa représentation. Le récipient vu par le mudac et celui de la collection du MVVV semblent de natures différentes. Pourtant, les deux sont le résultat de procédures culturelles légitimes, qui leur assurent un statut à part en tant qu’objets de collection. Leurs formes communiquent aussi sur d’autres plans : matériaux (qualités de verre, bois), aspect pratique (utilité, obsolescence, détournement), usage (traces, poussières, brillance). L’ouvrage met en valeur une soixantaine de pièces rassemblées par les deux institutions.

The high-tech architecture of the 1970s–1990s is typically characterized by the use and exhibition of advanced technologies. In terms of appearance, these buildings often have innovative façades, supporting structures accentuated in color, and expressively displayed technology systems.

Résumé:
The high-tech architecture of the 1970s–1990s is typically characterized by the use and exhibition of advanced technologies. In terms of appearance, these buildings often have innovative façades, supporting structures accentuated in color, and expressively displayed technology systems. Unfortunately, however, the rapid obsolescence of technology has often led to the complete replacement of the very systems that defined the architectural form. In 2023, an international conference at ETH Zurich in collaboration with Bauhaus-Universität Weimar explored the question of how best to deal with the structural legacy of technologically innovative architecture. This book summarizes the results and provides an overview of the current state of research.

Résumé:
In a world propelled by swift technological progress and perpetual obsolescence, women frequently find themselves adapting and altering their daily experiences in order to remain functional. In the 21st century, as technology purports to comprehensively assess and address women’s conditions and physical discomfort, ''Cycles, the Sacred and the Doomed'' delves deeply into the realm of female health technologies, revealing a space where science, holistic methods and mythology converge. This book challenges the idea of combining ancient wisdom with modern innovation and takes readers on a multidisciplinary journey to explore the intricacies of women’s health. What roles can digital tools and devices play in promoting female health? How can the use of digital tools and devices be beneficial for the promotion of female well-being? How might digital tools and devices be used to support and improve these systems?

Résumé:
Bureau 205, bureau de design graphique, a conçu l'identité visuelle du musée de l'Imprimerie et de la Communication graphique. Elle a cela de particulier qu'elle prend appui sur un logotype mobile, socle du langage visuel que les designers développent depuis 2013. Car, à l'image de son logotype, cette identité n'est pas figée mais continue à se construire au fil des événements et expositions : un processus ouvert et itératif qui projette le musée de l'Imprimerie dans le domaine de la communication graphique. À partir de ce travail, c'est la question du statut d'une identité visuelle pour une institution qui est posée. Les designers s'interrogent sur le rôle d'une charte graphique et de son obsolescence programmée si l'identité n'est pas réfléchie pour pouvoir évoluer avec les besoins auxquels elle est censée s'adapter. Une réflexion nécessaire à une époque où flexibilité et réorganisation sont, de fait, imposées.
