and technology (such as high tech/low tech, new tech/old tech) where architecture
education and design practices could be more critically integrated, including: Bringing together practicing and academic architects, technologists, engineers, designers, and theorists, the seminar will allow participants to explore technology teaching and practice methods best suited to the possibilities borne of this new complexity. Participants will engage in presentations, symposia, and workshops designed to deepen understanding and approach to integrating materials and technology in design pedagogy, practice, and research. Proceedingsincluding papers, projects, and conversationswill be documented and edited for publication to a wider audience.
