Since computing is embedding itself ever deeper in the fabric of reality through a pervasive network of connected, communicating and sensing objects, it is worthwhile to trace and characterize the concepts going in, out and through computing from the fields of architecture and philosophy. This is exactly what the Tracing Concepts project deals with. The artificial environment of the computer is a place where particularly abstract concepts find fertile ground. Since “software is perhaps the ultimate heterogeneous technology[, i]t exists simultaneously as an idea, language, technology, and practice” (Nathan Ensmenger). In a very real way, a concept is literally put to work in a programming language, they become operative, mechanical cogs in the machinery of the Universal Machine. While degrees, titles, institutes and schools constitute disciplinary boundaries and define professions, the ideas and concepts that circulate in a discipline are much more difficult, if not impossible, to cage. Ideas are borrowed and appropriated from one field to another. When adopted in new contexts concepts are mutated, bastardized and are re-utilized and, more often than not, depoliticized. <img src="http://payload4.cargocollective.com/1/0/1712/2380358/tumblr_lv7ujnV6gz1r4fomno1_1280_640.jpeg" border="0" width="640" height="723" width_o="1132" height_o="1280" src_o="http://payload4.cargocollective.com/1/0/1712/2380358/tumblr_lv7ujnV6gz1r4fomno1_1280_o.jpeg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload4.cargocollective.com/1/0/1712/2380358/tumblr_lv7ujnV6gz1r4fomno2_1280_640.jpeg" border="0" width="640" height="493" width_o="1280" height_o="986" src_o="http://payload4.cargocollective.com/1/0/1712/2380358/tumblr_lv7ujnV6gz1r4fomno2_1280_o.jpeg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload4.cargocollective.com/1/0/1712/2380358/tumblr_lv7ujnV6gz1r4fomno4_1280_640.jpeg" border="0" width="640" height="504" width_o="1280" height_o="1009" src_o="http://payload4.cargocollective.com/1/0/1712/2380358/tumblr_lv7ujnV6gz1r4fomno4_1280_o.jpeg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload4.cargocollective.com/1/0/1712/2380358/tumblr_lv7ujnV6gz1r4fomno3_1280_640.jpeg" border="0" width="640" height="495" width_o="1280" height_o="991" src_o="http://payload4.cargocollective.com/1/0/1712/2380358/tumblr_lv7ujnV6gz1r4fomno3_1280_o.jpeg" align="left" /> Specifications English - 24 pp. - 20 x 27 cm - colour & b/w, Edition: 1000, Concept, research and text: Marcell Mars, Edwin Gardner, Copy editing: Volume magazine, Proofreading and translation: Volume magazine, Steve Chodoriwsky, Dubravka Sekulic, Design: Irma Boom, Oscar David Quijano, Production: Volume magazine, Printing and binding: Die Keure, Brugge http://www.edwingardner.nl/sanjamitrovic-com http://www.edwingardner.nl/following/edwingardner.nl/sanjamitrovic-com Fri, 06 Jan 2012 20:56:18 +0000 edwingardner × projects 2402957 This website shows the projects of theater-maker Sanja Mitrovic / Stand Up Tall Productions.

The Korean Gwangju biennale is visited by people from all strata of society, and with its half a million visitors in two months the best visited biennale in the world. It is hart warming to see the school classes shuffle by following the guide of the educational program who patiently explains the biennale. The biennale was once established as a living monument to remember the hundreds who have fallen in the democratization movement of 18 May 1980. The biennale is truly a festival of the people. The thesis this biennale poses is that: Everything is design and everybody is a designer. Designers are those that draw and write a D.I.Y instruction for peaceful protests in Egypt, those that supply the screens of stock traders with numbers and graphs, and they are those athletes that submit their body to very specific training programs. → continue reading / of lees in het Nederlands http://www.edwingardner.nl/Mapping-Ceramique http://www.edwingardner.nl/following/edwingardner.nl/Mapping-Ceramique Mon, 12 Sep 2011 06:58:23 +0000 edwingardner × projects 1801389 A mapping workshop organized together with Annemarie van den Berg and Tara Karpinski for the Netherlands Architecture Institute Maastricht (NAiM) / Bureau Europa on the Céramique city quarters, a grand urban redevelopment scheme from the 90s.
