Before the UAE There Was The Dragon Blood Tree
No full textColonial-imperial expansion is an ongoing reality that can be traced not only through books, accounts, or images, but also through seemingly innocuous and banal spatial practices that appear time and time again in the built environment. As architects and designers, we should always have an awareness that we are complicit in this process, that architectural typologies are planned and situated in specific locations, at specific times, by the influence of geopolitical forces. At what moment in our practice are we in too deep? Do we have a choice to stop, reverse, or somehow change the process going forward? Do we remain complicit, or can we begin to mobilize
A Conversation With Zachary Mollica
No full textI’m Zac. As of this very moment, I am one of the two Emerging Architect Fellows at the university. I joined the Daniels Faculty in Summer 2022. I’m a kind of funny mix of a bunch of things. I teach in architecture schools and have done so for about 8 or 9 years now. I have a background that includes forestry, carpentry, wood design (among other things). My work spans hands- on research. It’s very analog. It’s very digital. It is fundamentally rooted in trying to make it so that we can look better at trees than seeing 2x4s and plywood. My recent exhibition, and really, all my work at Daniels, is about finding ways to look closer, and using technology to try to look backwards without a rustic view
The Interspecies Fabulated Archive
No full textThe ‘Interspecies Fabulated Archive’ collects a web of stories which entangles several actors—human and non-human, real and fictional—nurturing interspecies kinship in and around the Mitis River, in Eastern Québec. In the fabulated past and future, kinship materializes on the site as an ensemble of mediating devices taking the form of convoys, rituals, monuments, artworks, and deconstruction projects engaging with the landscape and the stressed ecosystem. The following is a sample of the drawings, models, recordings, and live performances found in the fabulated archive. ‘From the Mouth of a Salmon’ continues to grow. There are more stories still untold. I look forward to sharing an updated archive in some other form with you—soon
Visual Experimentation + Technology
No full textThis section explores how artistic practice, representation, and technology intersect, and can be used to advance or question existing research. From oil painting and collage to photography and holography, diverse representational mediums are used to communicate divergent ideas and facilitate novel explorations. Artistic media is used to share female perspectives and experiences in the work of Ai Liu (p. 172), while the work of Anella Schabler (p. 164) focuses on execution of the medium itself. Friction between scientific processes and architectural/artistic practice is also explored through the holograms of Jamie Lipson (p. 186), as well as the collages, drawings, and paintings of Salma Ragheb (p. 178). Authors in this section reflect on how their unique positionalities inform and shape their work and inquiry, demonstrating how marginalized actors and perspectives can contribute to discourses across art and science—this is further exemplified in the innovative research of Charlotte Keskinen-Keith (p. 196)
