PRINT! ARCHITECTURE
We live in a time when 3D printing has matured from a hobbyist and prototyping tool to a technology with potential to disrupt entire industries in and around the built environment. The developments in additive manufacturing are transforming architecture and design no less than they impact engineering and construction. The book portrays the rapid advances in research and industrial processes that have paved the road for this upheaval. In five chapters that cover historical development, engineering aspects, the digital design process, interactions with other technologies and potential for functionalization through additive manufacturing, the editors have curated a text that illustrates how a complex network of actors inspires and influences each other to make thistechnological transformation possible. The book follows the trail of scientists who prove the technology's viability and documents design explorations, prototypes and entire buildings that are demonstrating their readiness for the commercial market.

Coding Architecture
This book provides a clear picture of how computational processes are gradually permeating and innovating the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction sector, contributing to sustainability and aesthetic evolution. It achieves that by gathering a collection of accounts shared by pioneering professionals involved in this innovation, drawing from recent academic studies, ongoing experimental processes conducted in cutting-edge architectural and engineering offices, as well as innovative industrial applications. The covered subjects span a wide range, including artificial intelligence and robotic manufacturing, the metaverse and 3D printing, strategies to counter CO2 consumption through plug-ins, as well as emerging materials and construction techniques. The chapters feature authors who are pioneers and embrace roles like software developers, architects, process engineers, academics, and forward-thinking entrepreneurs. They represent authoritative references within a broader interconnected cultural and technological system; an eclectic system that finds in computational processes the key to addressing the new challenges of contemporary architecture.
Agile Digitalisierung im Baubetrieb
Das Bauwesen befindet sich seit Jahrzehnten auf dem Weg der Digitalisierung. Die neuen Entwicklungen in Hard- und Software, wie etwa polysensorale Systeme zur Zustandsdetektion von Prozessen und Bauteilen oder maschinelles Lernen, gekoppelt mit der Fortentwicklung der Produktions- und Managementmethoden im Bereich des Bauwesens, lassen weitere Rationalisierungspotenziale zur Verbesserung der Effektivität und der Effizienz von Planungs-, Produktions- und Nutzungsprozessen von Bauwerken erschließen. Mit dem Aufbau digitaler Wissensspeicher entwickeln sich darüber hinaus neue Möglichkeiten der Daten- und Informationsverarbeitung. Bauprozesse und Bauwerke werden dadurch intelligenter. Trotz dieser neuen Technologien bleibt jedoch die zentrale Bedeutung agierender Menschen grundlegend. Dieses Kompendium beinhaltet die Grundlagen zum Thema „Digitalisierung im Baubetrieb“, berichtet über die aktuellen Entwicklungen sowie über Best Practices auf der Basis agiler und digitaler Methoden undWerkzeuge – von der Planung über die Ausführung bis hin zum Betrieb von Bauwerken und unter besonderer Würdigung des „Faktors Mensch“.
More Than Bauhaus
In 2003 Tel Aviv became a UNESCO World Heritage site. On this occasion Tel Aviv was described as a "synthetic representation of some of the most significant trends of the Modern Movement in architecture, as it developed in Europe". Today the "White City" in Tel Aviv with its some 4, 000 buildings from the 1920s and 1930s is renowned as the largest collection of so-called Bauhaus buildings in the world. What does it mean that the architects of these projects arrived from all over Europe, and only six of them were Bauhaus alumni? Over recent decades the word Bauhaus has become synonymous with modernity in art, design and architecture. Often disregarding the original intentions of the School, f...
Jurisdictional Exceptionalisms
Examines a complex global legal problem to demonstrate a compelling method for comparative legal, cultural, and social understanding.
First virtual Global Fisheries Enforcement Training Workshop
This document contains the proceedings of the IMCSNET’s first ever virtual GFETW, which took place online on 13 and 14 July 2021. Nearly 600 monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS) practitioners from around the world, as well as other fisheries stakeholders and organizations, registered to participate in the online conference, which consisted of a schedule of speakers, presentations, panel discussions, and interactive discussion rooms. In addition, the virtual platform software utilized for the GFETW facilitated the ability for participants to create and use private meeting rooms for networking sessions, as well as an online chatting function. One of the primary focuses of the IMCSNET i...
Feminist Futures of Spatial Practice
Architecture and the arts have long been on the forefront of socio-spatial struggles, in which equality, access, representation and expression are at stake in our cities, communities and everyday lives. Feminist spatial practices contribute substantially to new forms of activism, expanding dialogues, engaging materialisms, transforming pedagogies, and projecting alternatives. 'Feminist Futures of Spatial Practice' traces practical tools and theoretical dimensions, as well as temporalities, emergence, histories, events, durations ? and futures ? of feminist practices. 0Authors include international practitioners, researchers, and educators, from architecture, the arts, art history, curating, cultural heritage studies, environmental sciences, futures studies, film, visual communication, design and design theory, queer, intersectional and gender studies, political sciences, sociology, and urban planning. Established as well as emerging voices write critically from within their institutions, professions, and their activist, political and personal practices.
A Death in Malta
When Paul Caruana Galizia was at work in London, his eldest brother called to say their mother Daphne had just been assassinated. That day, he returned to their native Malta and, with his two brothers and their father, began a quest to discover who was responsible for Daphne's murder and who stood to profit from ending the life of a journalist whose courage and determination threatened the powerful with the truth. Two years later, they did. A Death in Malta is more than an investigation into the life and assassination of Daphne by her son Paul. It's an examination of the globalisation of corruption and what it has done to a modern European country; it's about that country's escape from colonialism to another kind of arrogant power; it's a personal history of writing when the stakes are high and the intimidation is violent. Above all, it's a universal homage to mothers and their sons.
Beyond Efficiency
How could a more just and sustainable living environment be like? This anthology seeks to shed new light on how the design of built living environments shapes the possibilities for everyday life to be sustainable- The centerpiece of the anthology is a selection of speculative design experiments, including e.g. Weather Wash, Biophilia, and Interstitial Interventions. Moving from an analysis o 'what is' to an exploration of 'what if', the design experiments seek to articulate the limitations of ecomodernist urban sustainability while also opening up for alternatives. The design experiments are complemented by a number of essays, expanding on frustrations and reflections, and proving insight into how a design driven research process might be carried out, including methodological troubles. If you have an interest in planning and design for urban sustainability, futures studies and speculation, and/or design-driven research, then this book is definitely for you.
