Directions for Getting Lost: or How To Change Your Mind
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc, 2018) West, Mark W.
Architect Mark W West creates work that is incredibly delicately drawn. Here he documents the construction of his drawings, while his friend, whose name is also Mark West, contributes a commentary about the creative process behind them. The two texts reveal how the works defy the damage caused by reductive traditional architectural education and general experience, and open the viewer to a sense of greater wholeness, however disturbing this may be.

Biology, Real Time and Multimodal Design Cell-Signaling as a Realtime Principle in Multimodal Design
(Ecaade-Education & Research Computer Aided Architectural Design Europe, 2015) Teixeira, Frederico Fialho
The common understanding of morphogenesis implies a three-dimensional evolutionary change in form witnessed in the developmental process of an organism. This evolutionary process emerges from cell growth, cellular differentiation and environmental changes that generate specific conditions between genotype and phenotype. The complex nature of these aspects is intrinsic to evolutionary biology, and its accurate implementation in bio-generated architectures potentiates a twofold understanding of different morphogenetic strategies and its spatial consequences. Within this premise the morphogenetic factors of cell-differentiation and cell-signaling become a crucial aspect in a real-time communication system between an archetype and space, thus performing within particular modes in which design correlates to space. The paper hypothesizes and tests the use of Cell-Signaling as system of communication that governs fundamental cellular activities within the process of Gastrulation. This process occurs in early cell-embryo development and where communication between cells is favorably active and cellular the structure is established. The Emosphera project is a technical re-contextualization of this specific morphogenetic process. The principles denote a genetic code of the object can be scripted in a CAD environment and reproduced real-time by means of communication through a multimedia platform, which render form as a consequential aspect.
Free(?) Space at the 2018 Venice Biennale
(Intellect Books, 2019) Yücel, Şebnem
In his article ‘Out of Site/In Plain View: On the Origins and Actuality of the Architecture Exhibition’, architectural historian and curator Barry Bergdoll starts by asking the obvious question: ‘What does it mean to exhibit architecture? Isn’t architecture, once it is built, always already on display?’1 Despite always being on display, however, architecture escapes being exhibited. Because we cannot exhibit architecture in the way an artist can exhibit a painting or a sculpture.
How It Emerged That the Approach To Arts, Design, and Architecture Already Contains a Flip
(Emerald Group Publishing, 2016) İnceoğlu, Arda; Sahin, Muhammed; Kurban, Caroline Fell; Kurban, Caroline Fell; Şahin, Muhammed
Architectural education is open to Flipping by its very nature. Since 19th century, design studios have been at the core of very different models of architectural education. Design studios have always been always active learning environments where students learn by doing. Typically, students are presented with design problems to which they need to develop personal solutions. Thus, from the very beginning of their studies, students simulate how an actual architect would approach design problems. With each new design studio, they develop new skills or hone the ones they have already acquired. Such an approach immediately creates a learning culture which is based on active learning where students are challenged to take responsibility, to solve complex problems and develop their individual character as designers while being able to work in group environments. A design studio is not a course where information is given an it is expected the students learn and use that information. It is a collaborative learning environment. Thus, following the lead of design studios, flipping theoretical courses within the architectural curriculum and making them active learning environments should be almost natural. However, this is not necessarily the case. There is a wide gap in pedagogical approaches used between design studios and theory courses within architectural education (Allen, 1997; Chiuini, 2006; Smith, 2004; Oakley, B, Felder, R M, Brent, R; Elhajj, I, 2004). Courses on architectural technology (structures, construction methods, detailing) and to a lesser extent courses on history and theory of architecture are taught in more conventional ways with little emphasis on the application of the information discussed (Vassigh, 2005, 2009). Within this context, it is important to find ways to develop non-studio courses as active learning environments.
