Vibrant Architecture

This book sets out the conditions under which the need for a new approach to the production of architecture in the twenty-first century is established, where our homes and cities are facing increasing pressures from environmental challenges that are compromising our lives and well being. Vibrant architecture embodies a new kind of architectural design practice that explores how lively materials, or 'vibrant matter', may be incorporated into our buildings to confer on them some of the properties of living things, such as movement, growth, sensitivity and self-repair. The theoretical and practical implications of how this may occur are explored through the application of a new group of materia...

Black Heart on the Appalachian Trail

“With echoes of Flannery O’Connor, Faulkner, and Raymond Carver” (A.M. Homes), this singular psychological tale of murder unfolds against the backdrop of one of America’s most breathtaking landscapes. In the vast wilderness of the Appalachian Trail, three hikers are searching for answers. Taz Chavis, just released from prison, sees the thru-hike as his path to salvation and a way to distance himself from a toxic relationship. Simone Decker, a young scientist with a dark secret, is desperate to quell her demons. Richard Nelson, a Blackfoot Indian, seeks a final adventure before taking over the family business back home. As they battle hunger, thirst, and loneliness, and traverse the rugged terrain, their paths begin to intersect, and it soon becomes clear that surviving the elements may be the least of their concerns. Hikers are dying along the trail, their broken bodies splayed on the rocks below. Are these falls accidental, the result of carelessness, or is something more sinister at work?

Bubble Gum Studies

Das Kaugummi ist im Alltag so allgegenwärtig, dass es als völlig gewöhnlich angesehen wird und nur noch als klebriges Ärgernis an der Schuhsohle ins Bewusstsein tritt. Doch hat man es einmal in den Blick bekommen, dann sind die Spuren, die es hierlässt, unübersehbar – als Quengelware an der Supermarktkasse ist es genauso präsent wie im Kaugummiautomaten, an dem viele ihre ersten Schritte in die Konsumwelt unternehmen. Dabei kommt ihm als Nahrungsmittel eine bemerkenswerte Sonderstellung zu, denn es wird gerade nicht durch Verzehr einverleibt, sondern widersetzt sich renitent jeder Vereinnahmung. Vielleicht ist diese Widerständigkeit auch ein Grund, weshalb das Kaugummi, trotz seiner Omnipräsenz, bislang kaum beachtet wurde. Diese Forschungslücke schließen die Autor:innen des vorliegenden Bandes. Ausgehend von einer Kulturgeschichte des Kaugummis verfolgen sie die Spuren, die das Kaugummi in Kunst, Werbung, Wissenschaft und Umwelt sowie vor allem in unserem täglichen Leben hinterlassen hat und beständig hinterlässt.
