Architectures of the Near Future – Architectural Design: Architectural Design, cartea 37

Autor NC Clear
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 sep 2009
Gastautor Nic Clear stellt in diesem brandaktuellen Buch Konzepte für die Zukunft in Frage. Kann sich die Gesellschaft nur durch wirtschaftliches Wachstum weiterentwickeln? Bedeutet die aktuelle wirtschaftliche Krise eventuell das Ende einer Zukunft unbegrenzten Wachstums und/oder eröffnet sie gegebenenfalls neue Möglichkeiten? Dieses Buch greift zum einen zurück auf Themen wie künstlicher Raum, Psychoanalyse, geografische Strukturen in der Postmoderne, Kybernetik und Neurologie und lässt zum anderen den Romanschriftsteller William Gibson, den Archigram-Architekten David Greene und den Musiker Brian Eno zu Wort kommen. Architekten, Studenten und interessierte Leser erhalten so einen Einblick in alternative Sichtweisen und Konzepte.

Descriere

In this highly pertinent issue, guest–editor Nic Clear questions received notions of the future.In this highly pertinent issue, guest-editor Nic Clear questions received notions of the future. Are the norms of economic growth the only way society can develop? Does the current economic crisis call into question a future of unlimited growth and/or enable different choices? Drawing on such fields as synthetic space, psychoanalysis, postmordern geography, post-economics, cybernetics, and neurology, as well as interviews with novelist William Gibson, Archigram architect David Greene, and musician Brian Eno, Architectures of the Near Future offers practicing architects, students, and others a series of alternative voices.
