This lecture will focus on the studio's research into artificial intelligence and design. The lecture will discuss the limitations and inherent inductive stagnation of collective valuation and feed-forward machine learning. It will also explore the generative potentials of these systems to rethink disciplinary "truths" and the significance of diagram-based practices in a contemporary social and technological context.

Please join us Friday, January 31 at 12:00pm to celebrate the launch of our new book, Centerline 14: Time for Timber, edited by Ulrich Dangel.

Centerline 14: Time for Timber declares that wood has claimed its seat at the table, leading the conversation about sustainable building materials. This publication summarizes the thoughts, observations, and opinions of the speakers at the Time for Timber exhibition and symposium held at the UTSOA in February, 2017.

How might the geographic imagination convert into image and narrative the climate crisis, not only as a calamity of the physical environment but also as a predicament of the cultural one - of the systems of representation through which society relates to complex and unknown environmental futures?

On Friday, November 22, the Center for American Architecture and Design will host Maggie Hansen as part of the Friday Lunch Forum series.

Roughly every other Friday during the fall and spring semesters, the Center hosts the Friday Lunch Forum Series. The aim of the series is for faculty, staff, and students to meet in an informal atmosphere to debate topics and to share ideas about history, practice, theory, and new directions for architecture. Recordings of each forum will be posted as they become available.

Description
Transportation planning in the U.S. has for over a century been guided by several core principles: speed, mobility, vehicle throughput, capacity expansion, traffic control, mode separation. These principles are hugely influential, yet they are largely implicit and rarely questioned, at least not officially, despite their general failure to produce an efficient transportation system. Some ideas are seemingly unshakable, persisting despite compelling alternatives; other ideas have come in and out of favor and back.
