SEASON 3 EPISODE 4

Welcome to the 3d season of Woods in the Sound: ARCHITECTURE(S) OF CONNECTION and to this 4th episode: Material Gestures. This season we are contemplating and reflecting on regenerative spatial practices. Can architecture(s) support multispecies conviviality and contribute to cultivation of ecological futures? How to think the project of human inhabitation in present times of ecological imperative? What can we learn from vernacular, contemporary and emerging knowledges of spatial practices, as well as multilingual situated dialogues?

In this episode we are turning to material practices that suggest ways in which human-planetary relations can be rearticulated, in our efforts to build human spaces in attentive coherence with and within living ecologies. How does a material project become a project of connection?

SEASON 3 EPISODE 3

Welcome to the 3d season of Woods in the Sound: ARCHITECTURE(S) OF CONNECTION and to this 3d episode: Designing for Relation. This season we are contemplating and reflecting on regenerative spatial practices. Can architecture(s) support multispecies conviviality and contribute to cultivation of ecological futures? How to think the project of human inhabitation in present times of ecological imperative? What can we learn from vernacular, contemporary and emerging knowledges of spatial practices, as well as multilingual situated dialogues?

In this episode we are looking at the ways in which architectural and design practices are paying attention to the questions of inclusion or exclusion of multispecies communities from human spaces, questioning the anthropocentric constitution of architecture.

Conversation partners: Andrea Palasti, Andrés Jaque, Ann Light, Cornelius Hackenbracht, Ferdinand Ludwig, Hagen Harwardt, Jakob Rauscher, Martín Ávila, Matthew Dalziel, Thijs de Zeeuw, Thomas Hauck, Tsukasa Ono.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 2

Welcome to the 3d season of Woods in the Sound: ARCHITECTURE(S) OF CONNECTION
and to this 2d episode: Connecting to a Place.

This season we are contemplating and reflecting on regenerative spatial practices. Can architecture(s) support multispecies conviviality and contribute to cultivation of ecological futures? How to think the project of human inhabitation in present times of ecological imperative? What can we learn from vernacular, contemporary and emerging knowledges of spatial practices, as well as multilingual situated dialogues?

In this episode we slowly move towards more grounded realities and situated contexts within planetary inhabitations, turning our gaze to potentialities for a renewed relationship with the place.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 1

Welcome to the 3d season of Woods in the Sound: ARCHITECTURE(S) OF CONNECTION and to this 1st episode: Architecturаl Imaginaries for Planetary Habitability

This season we are contemplating and reflecting on regenerative spatial practices. Can architecture(s) support multispecies conviviality and contribute to cultivation of ecological futures? How to think the project of human inhabitation in present times of ecological imperative? What can we learn from vernacular, contemporary and emerging knowledges of spatial practices, as well as multilingual situated dialogues?

In this episode we are contemplating a bigger picture, the wider territorial scales of thought and action, pondering on how a more respectful cohabitation can be real, and what critical perspectives may assist in framing the contemporary architectural practices that promote life, diversity and coexistence.
