Résumé:
The scale and patterns of urbanization today challenges the notion of permanence as the default condition for cities. Rubrics like informality have meanwhile become counter-productive, as they also implicitly aspire to create new processes in imagining permanence. Does permanence, as the sole instrument in urban imaginaries, really matter? For the over 700 million(...)

Rubrics like informality have meanwhile become counter-productive, as they also implicitly aspire to create new processes in imagining permanence. Does permanence, as the sole instrument in urban imaginaries, really matter? For the over 700 million people represented in this research, stability is a luxury! Permanence is not an affordable condition and does not really affect their daily existence. What does this then mean for architecture and the city?

The growth of the number and scale of Chinese museums in the 21st century, from about 1,400 at the turn of the century to over 5,000 to date, reflects the government’s Museum Development Plan for 2011-2020 to open one museum per 250,000 inhabitants, with the goal of attracting one billion visitors at the end of the decade.

Résumé:

What are the motivations for the rapid development of museums in China? How is the public responding? Who pays for these museums and how? What has been the impact of china’s urbanization? How do Chinese museums balance education, scientific research, social cohesion, cultural diplomacy and tourism both internal and external? These are issues that continue to be discussed and debated among western museum professionals in the context of our 200 - year history of modern museology. How are these debates evolving in China, which has its own history of museology over that same period from colonialism to communism and from isolation to opening up to the world?

Résumé:
Comment concevoir un musée et son contenu ? Comment façonner cet outil de médiation de l’art et des savoirs ? Des années 1920 aux années 1960, Le Corbusier s’interroge, échangeant avec des conservateurs, des responsables politiques et des artistes. Outre la création d’une forme à « croissance illimitée », il défend un « musée de la connaissance » et l’utopie d’une version « électronique » pour l’Inde, inspirée par la cybernétique. En s’appuyant sur ses écrits et ses archives, ce livre examine les positions de Le Corbusier et en analyse les ressorts, entre pragmatisme et opportunisme, fascination technologique, paternalisme néocolonial et convictions humanistes. Hybride, mobile et démultipliable, son modèle idéal tient à la fois du livre et du spectacle, et ses intuitions visionnaires entrent étonnamment en résonance avec les réflexions d’aujourd’hui sur le musée.

After two decades of research, education, and community engagement, there are insights to share, generalizations to examine, and research needs to highlight. This volume synthesizes the key findings, melds the perspectives of different disciplines, and celebrates the benefits of interacting with diverse communities and institutions in improving Baltimore’s ecology. These widely applicable insights from Baltimore contribute to our understanding the ecology of other cities, provide a comparison for the global process of urbanization, and inform establishment of urban ecological research elsewhere.

The first Auroville community was based on a particular spirit, following a design appropriate to Sri Aurobindo’s integral yoga. Pondicherry is a seaside town where the French influence can still be seen in its architecture, street names, and local language. Yet Tamil architectural styles can also be found there. This guidebook includes four Auroville itineraries structured around the experimental township’s master plan, which is divided into four zones. A fifth itinerary is located in Auromodele, which is outside the main part of the city. Likewise, three Pondicherry itineraries correspond with the city’s three main geographical zones: French Quarter, Tamil Quarter, and suburban areas.

Taking the city of Berne as an example, photographer Brigitte Schuster shows the variety of ways humans facilitate the comings and goings of their feline friends in the context of the surrounding architecture. From a simple wooden plank to complex, scaffold-like constructions rising up to four storeys in a zigzag fashion, they express sociological, architectural, and aesthetic peculiarities, which are further developed in accompanying texts. As such, the book serves as both a guideline and source of inspiration in creating your own cat ladders.

It was conceived as an abject that one would want to read employing both eyes and hands, and with the idea of becoming an archive that orders and clarifies the diverse ways of working and the projects of a series of architects. "Archives" presents monographic issues dedicated to architects with built work that can be visited and photographed, so as to offer a real look at their architecture. A continuous look through the eyes of the same photographer, Juan Rodriguez, with the idea of establishing a relationship between all that may be shown in the different issues of the magazine. This second issue shows the work of Bearth & Deplazes.

Yet this fifth volume in the Archifutures series takes the position that the "apocalypse" is not an imminent event, but an insidious process that is already happening. Communities everywhere are facing it on a day-to-day basis. Many are already resisting and adapting. Despite the implied drama of the word "apocalypse", the reality is actually far more mundane: surviving it is not about building bunkers, it is about building resilience - everywhere and in all kinds of ways.
