This book was released on 2010-12-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Es bien sabido que la arquitectura es un tipo muy especifico de arte, de ciencia o de acto etico,porque los edificios, las ciudades y los territorios son artefactos fisicos y sociales, no representaciones «virtuales», como sucede en el cine, en la literatura, etc. Mijail Bajtin era consciente de esta especificidad cuando afirmaba que la arquitectura, «toda la arquitectura», solamente tiene «sujetos esteticos potenciales», no «heroes esteticos reales».1 Sin embargo, estas cualidades especificas de la arquitectura no significan que «el proyecto arquitectonico virtual», es decir, un proyecto aun no construido, aun no usado, sea real. - See more at: http://ebooks.upc.edu/product/arquitectura-y-virtualidad-architecture-virtuality#sthash.qKiK1LUK.dpuf

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migrar o perecer perfila la Australia que se esconde tras el brillo de las olas en la piel bronceada de los jóvenes surfistas. Los protagonistas de este reportaje abandonaron el lugar donde nacieron y emprendieron el viaje a Australia con la esperanza de labrarse un futuro mejor. Ellos son la historia viva de este país joven moldeado a base de oleadas migratorias. A los primeros colonos británicos les siguieron italianos, griegos y españoles, vietnamitas, libaneses, indios y chinos.Hoy Australia es uno de los países con más diversidad cultural, lingüística y religiosa del mundo. Entre sus ciudadanos se cuentan más de trescientas nacionalidades, más de doscientos países de origen y más de doscientas lenguas. Un tercio de los habitantes nació en otro país y un 45 % son hijos de inmigrantes.Sobre el papel, Australia parece un experimento migratorio que ha triunfado. En realidad, es el laboratorio de pruebas para un fenómeno global, el del multiculturalismo, que sigue en fase de ensayo.Los nueve retratos de Migrar o perecer hablan de racismo, islamofobia, manipulación mediática y marginación. También de individuos que trabajan duro, que luchan por salir adelante, por dejar huella en un país que forja día a día su identidad.

Book Ethno Architecture and the Politics of Migration

Download or read book Ethno Architecture and the Politics of Migration written by Mirjana Lozanovska and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethno-Architecture and the Politics of Migration explores the interface between migration and architecture. Cities have been substantially affected by transnational migration but the physical manifestations of migration in architecture – and its effect on streetscape, neighbourhood and city – have so far been understudied. This contributed volume examines how migrants interact with, adapt, and construct new architecture. Looking at the physical, urban and cultural impact of these changes on a variety of sites, the authors explore architecture as an identity category and investigate what buildings and places associated with migration tell us about central questions of belonging, culture, community, and home in regions such as North America, Australia and the UK. An important contribution to debates on place identity and the transformation of places as a result of mobility and globalised economies in the 21st century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the decades, there has been a world-wide transformation of so-called ‘vernacular houses’. Based on ethnographic accounts from different regions, Houses Transformed investigates the changing practices of building houses in a transnational context. It explores the intersection of house biographies and social change, the politics of housing design, the social fabrication of aspirational houses, the domestication of concrete and the intersection of materiality and ontology as well as the rhetoric of the vernacular. The volume provides new anthropological pathways to understanding the dynamics of dwelling in the 21st century.

Founded in 2004 by Ma Yansong, the office first earned worldwide attention in 2006 by winning an international competition to design a residential tower near Toronto, expected to be completed in the summer of 2012. MAD has been commissioned by clients of all backgrounds, leading to an intriguing combination of diverse project designs. MAD's ongoing projects include two major cultural projects in Harbin: the China Wood Sculpture Museum and Harbin Culture Island, an opera house and cultural center that will retain the original wetlands as an urban park between the old and new city. MAD is led by Ma Yansong, Dang Qun and Yosuke Hayano. They have been awarded the Young Architecture Award from the New York Institute of Architects in 2006 and the 2011 RIBA international fellowship.

Book Caminantes

  • Author : Edgardo Scott
  • Publisher : Gatopardo ediciones
  • Release : 2022-09-26
  • ISBN : 8412577302
  • Pages : 99 pages

Download or read book Caminantes written by Edgardo Scott and published by Gatopardo ediciones. This book was released on 2022-09-26 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Lo cierto es que no se camina nada o se camina poco y mal. Se camina sin ver, sin contemplar, sin abandonarse al paseo», constata Edgardo Scott al inicio de este sugerente ensayo. En la era del automóvil, del footing y de las pantallas, el arte de caminar parece en peligro de extinción. Pues caminar es —puede ser— algo más que desplazarse a pie, dar un paso tras otro, ejercitar las piernas por prescripción médica. Como atestigua una larga tradición de escritores, pensadores y artistas a los que Scott convoca, homenajea y sigue en estas páginas llenas de asociaciones canónicas e imprevistas —de san Ignacio de Loyola a Damon Albarn, pasando por Baudelaire, R. L. Stevenson, Borges, Machado y Rosa Chacel—, caminar es una forma de meditación estética y filosófica, de imaginación literaria y política; una forma de escritura y de lectura en movimiento que nos ayuda a descifrar el mundo que nos rodea y también a nosotros mismos. La crítica ha dicho «Sin dar un paso en falso, con esa especie de ritmo en trance que guía su prosa, peregrinando a la intemperie pero también hacia dentro, estos paseos libres de Scott nos proponen una intensa lectura de las tradiciones caminantes y reivindican con belleza el acto mismo de caminar como un modo de lectura del espacio, de nuestra conciencia histórica y la propia intimidad.» Andrés Neuman «Una mirada lúcida y renovadora.» Ricardo Piglia «El tópico de los caminantes se ha vuelto un camino muy transitado y por eso se ha convertido en tierra de nadie. Creo que este libro introduce una primera diferencia.» Luis Gusmán «Con Scott puedes pasear, pero de verdad, tan de verdad como aquel piel roja de Kafka que cabalgaba y caminaba sin cabeza de caballo ni riendas ni gramática, sin punto de partida ni llegada, sólo el aire sobre cubierta, hogar ninguno en el camino.» Enrique Vila-Matas «Ahuyenta el tono solemne y llega a la belleza sin modales pretenciosos.» Miguel Cano, El Cultural
