The Architecture Foundation.

http://www.architecturefoundation.org.uk/programme/2010/legacy-plus
Hi all, I thought this three-day symposium at The Architecture Foundation may be of interest to most, particularly regarding this idea around the legacy of the Olympic site in East London, in light of our project. In addition the aaa/Urban Catalyst/muf architecture presentation on Wednesday may be worth a visit, considering its reference to the Lab lectures last term.

Mappings

Welcome to our Geographies blog, whether it will live or die. We could start anywhere. I guess it is RHIZOMATIC. What about, for instance, posting some parts of our mapping essays? Or discussing what the "violence of remaining intact" might mean or not mean to us? Or posting links to exhibitions? Photos? Even maps? I will start with one of my favourite quotes from our reading: "Writing has nothing to do with signifying, but with land-surveying and map-making, even of countries yet to come." (Deleuze/Guattari)
