Soft cover. Condición: New. Guest edited by architect Greg Lynn, Log 36: ROBOLOG explores the challenges and potentials posed to architecture by the rapidly accelerating field of robotics. Tossing aside the usual fabrication-focused discourse around robots, the 23 contributors to ROBOLOG investigate topics ranging from hyperrealistic robotic drag queens to machine vision to buildings that move. In addition to a collection of thought-provoking essays, this issue includes conversations with Elizabeth Diller, Nicholas de Monchaux and Ken Goldberg, and Chuck Hoberman. Rather than providing easy answers or touting cutting-edge technologies, ROBOLOG offers provocations to both architects and theorists. Robotic sensors, actuators, and networks have fundamentally transformed the world around us. What will architecture choose to do with them.…

Paperback. Condición: New. In visually cataloging the endearing and enigmatic ways in which the built environment takes shape, Best Practices proposes a new way of thinking about neighbourhoods, housing developments, streetscapes, and storefronts, not so much as places defined by building codes, dimensions, or geographic features, but as assemblages of ad hoc interventions and incidental ephemera. Drawing on the history of architecture, media theory, cultural anthropology, and urban studies, Best Practices pairs photographic documentation with extensive captions and citations to define a territory within the margins between the sanctioned and unsanctioned, the regulated and unregulated, the tasteful and tacky, the novel and the nonsense. While not necessarily in opposition of those mechanisms, Best Practices asserts that interest, knowledge, and meaning are more often generated on the lines that divide such categories. This book advocates for a more thorough consideration of the unauthorised remodels, slap-dash handiwork, haphazard paint jobs, half-hearted do-it-yourself projects, cracked facades, contradictions, compromises, and coincidences. …

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Beyond Provenanceconfronts architectures reliance on records that define materials through fixed notions of origin, ownership, and value. Against the backdrop of contemporary environmental and social challenges, the book asks how building materials are extracted, circulated, reused, and transformedand how these processes might be recorded differently. Bringing together historians, artists, conservators, and architects working across disciplines and geographies, it expands architectures field of inquiry from buildings and sites to quarries, archives, engineered lakes, and demolition yards. By examining the politics of provenance and documentation, the contributors question established practices of stabilization and certification and explore more speculative, collective, and mutable approaches to materials, histories, and design. - Questions architectures prevalent emphasis on origins, property, and value through an interdisciplinary approach Connects resource extraction, material reuse, and circular construction with architectural documentation Features experimental graphic design in a richly illustrated book, including holes drilled through the book block.…
