Download or read book Art of the Ad Hoc written by Howard Morris and published by Law Business Research Ltd.. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With changes in credit markets, traditional steering committees have fallen from favour in restructurings. Too slow and unwieldy. Enter the ad hoc committee. These self-formed groups of creditors take less time to set up, are more flexible, and can achieve otherwise impossible results for debtors, thanks to their ability to act unilaterally.Global Restructuring Review's The Art of the Ad Hoc fills in the blanks. In plain English, it provides a comprehensive guide on how to work successfully with these committees and illuminates an activity that has rightly been described as "e;an art"e;.The book draws on the collective wisdom and real-life experiences of 20 distinguished practitioners from 10 different firms to cover the topic from every angle and perspective - particularly those of committee member and debtor, with emphasis on the practical throughout.The guide is edited by three respected restructuring practitioners with extensive cross-border experience - Howard Morris, Judge James Peck and Sonya Van den Graaff - and is split into three parts: Part I explains an ad hoc committee's formation and organisation; Part II, its activities and powers; and Part III, what trading committee members may undertake.
Download or read book Adhocism expanded and updated edition written by Charles Jencks and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2013-05-24 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The triumphant return of a book that gave us permission to throw out the rulebook, in activities ranging from play to architecture to revolution. When this book first appeared in 1972, it was part of the spirit that would define a new architecture and design era—a new way of thinking ready to move beyond the purist doctrines and formal models of modernism. Charles Jencks and Nathan Silver's book was a manifesto for a generation that took pleasure in doing things ad hoc, using materials at hand to solve real-world problems. The implications were subversive. Turned-off citizens of the 1970s immediately adopted the book as a DIY guide. The word “adhocism” entered the vocabulary, the concept of adhocism became part of the designer's toolkit, and Adhocism became a cult classic. Now Adhocism is available again, with new texts by Jencks and Silver reflecting on the past forty years of adhocism and new illustrations demonstrating adhocism's continuing relevance. Adhocism has always been around. (Think Robinson Crusoe, making a raft and then a shelter from the wreck of his ship.) As a design principle, adhocism starts with everyday improvisations: a bottle as a candleholder, a dictionary as a doorstop, a tractor seat on wheels as a dining room chair. But it is also an undeveloped force within the way we approach almost every activity, from play to architecture to city planning to political revolution. Engagingly written, filled with pictures and examples from areas as diverse as auto mechanics and biology, Adhocism urges us to pay less attention to the rulebook and more to the real principle of how we actually do things. It declares that problems are not necessarily solved in a genius's “eureka!” moment but by trial and error, adjustment and readjustment.

Download or read book Deviant Design written by Craig Martin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Craig Martin addresses the transgressive or deviant aspects of design: design that straddles the divide between the licit and illicit, the legal and illegal, in a variety of ways. Martin argues that design is not necessarily for the social good, but that it is immersed in the social realm in all its contradictions and confusions. Through a series of case studies he explores a wide range of social practices that employ illicit forms of design thinking, including: early computer hacking and present-day hacker culture in which everyday objects are repurposed and deliberately misused; the cultures of reproduction, counterfeit and pirated versions of classic and luxury designs; and the use of material practices by smugglers to conceal drugs within consumer goods and luggage. Deviant Design contends that these amateur and illicit practices challenge the normative idea of the professional designer or maker. Rather than being reliant on the services of institutionalized design professionals, the adhocist practitioner displays forms of innovative design knowledge in understanding how artefacts have an inherent potential to be misused or repurposed.
