  • Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas
    5 Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas has been part of the international avant-garde since the nineteen-seventies and has been named the Pritzker Rem Koolhaas Architecture Prize for the year 2000. This book, which builds on six canonical projects, traces the discursive practice analyse behind the design methods used by Koolhaas and his office + OMA. It uncovers recurring key themes—such as wall, void, tur montage, trajectory, infrastructure, and shape—that have tek structured this design discourse over the span of Koolhaas’s Essays on the History of Ideas oeuvre. The book moves beyond the six core pieces, as well: It explores how these identified thematic design principles archi manifest in other works by Koolhaas as both practical re- Ingrid Böck applications and further elaborations. In addition to Koolhaas’s individual genius, these textual and material layers are accounted for shaping the very context of his work’s relevance. By comparing the design principles with relevant concepts from the architectural Zeitgeist in which OMA has operated, the study moves beyond its specific subject—Rem Koolhaas—and provides novel insight into the broader history of architectural ideas. Ingrid Böck is a researcher at the Institute of Architectural Theory, Art History and Cultural Studies at the Graz Ingrid Böck University of Technology, Austria. “Despite the prominence and notoriety of Rem Koolhaas … there is not a single piece of scholarly writing coming close to the … length, to the intensity, or to the methodological rigor found in the manuscript

  • Unbecoming Adults: Adolescence and the Technologies of Difference in Post
    Unbecoming Adults: Adolescence and the Technologies of Difference in Post-1960s US Ethnic Literature and Culture DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By James K. Harris, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Martin Joseph Ponce, Advisor Dr. Lynn Itagaki Dr. Jian Chen Copyright by James K. Harris 2017 Abstract Adolescence has always been a cultural construction. The designation of a separate space apart from the presumed innocence of childhood and the myths of autonomy and responsibility that come to define adulthood is a surprisingly modern phenomenon. As such, adolescence bears the traces of the ideologies of race, gender, sexuality, and nation that attend so much of the period that calls itself “modernity.” My dissertation asks how writers and artists of color imagine themselves into the archive of coming of age narratives in post-1960s US literature and culture. In thinking about the importance of identity in the period following the advent of nominal civil rights, I offer the “long(er) civil rights movement” as a way of resisting the move to periodize the struggles through which difference has historically accrued meaning in the US nation- state. Each chapter centers around a “technology,” the academy, the body, the entertainment industry, and the internet, which is essential to the formation of adolescent identity in the post-war era, alongside a key term in the lexicon of American culture that accrues added meanings when filtered through the experience of difference.

  • By: Maddie S. It Takes 84 Earth Years for It to Complete One Orbit
    Uranus By: Maddie S. It takes 84 earth years for it to complete one orbit. It's radius is 400.1 miles. At its closest it orbits Uranus appeared to be 1.7 billion miles away. At its only a blue-green ball with farthest it orbits 1.9 billion miles a smooth surface. away. Uranus is too far away to see easily without a telescope. Uranus is the seventh planet Sometimes it is just bright from the sun. It orbits farther enough to see with the naked out, along Uranus's outer eye. ring. Uranus' high powered telescope at the Keck Observatory in Hawaii creates detailed images of Uranus. Each of Uranus' hemispheres receives 42 earth years of sunlight. Uranus' rings are a mix of large chunks of matter and fine particles of dust. One spacecraft has managed to visit Uranus but it took a little creativity to get it there. The rings orbiting Uranus are thinner than those orbiting other planets. Uranus has ten moons. Ariel is Uranus's brightest moon. The moons names are Juliet, Puck Cordelia, Ophelia, Bianca, Desdemona, Portia, Rosalind, Cressida, and Belinda. Umbriel is the darkest moon on Uranus. Uranus Uranus is so far away that for about 200 years scientists could not make out how quickly it turns on its axis. Most planets turn on their axis in such a way that they are almost upright as they move about the sun. It is the only planet with an axis tipped that way, so some think of it as a sideways planet. Like most planets, Uranus has its own natural satellites, or moons.

  • EUQINOM Gallery at 1295 Alabama Street, San Francisco, CA 94110 Hours: Wednesday – Saturday, 12:00 - 5:00 PM, Open by Appointment Only
    E U Q I N O M ​ g a l l e r y ​ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE EUQINOM Gallery at 1295 Alabama Street, San Francisco, CA 94110 Hours: Wednesday – Saturday, 12:00 - 5:00 PM, Open by appointment only. Four Artists Rodney Ewing Adama Delphine Fawundu Rodrigo Valenzuela Giorgia Valli September 16 - October 31, 2020 EUQINOM Gallery is pleased to present Four Artists: an annual introductions exhibition that brings ​ ​ together contemporary artists Rodney Ewing, Adama Delphine Fawundu, Rodrigo Valenzuela, Giorgia Valli. Each artist explores issues of identity in various ways from the personal to the communal to the political. Four Artists will be on view from September 16 - October 24, 2020. ​ ​ Rodney Ewing’s latest series, Broken Shadows began during the 2020 pandemic’s shelter-in-place. ​ ​ ​ Originally created as a way to structure his time, the project evolved into a mining of his old silkscreens and ledger papers collected while an artist-in-residence at San Francisco’s Recology center. The work continues conversations about diaspora, place and identity with complex layerings of imagery where the visual depth mirrors the intensity of the subject matter. Pieces of Ewing’s archival material are now mixed with silkscreened images of Breonna Taylor, George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery alongside other figures and moments from African-American history. Adama Delphine Fawundu’s work takes the ancient West African deity, Mami Wata, as a departure ​ point and builds on her engagement with her Mende heritage of Sierra Leone. Linking known and under-recognized geographies of the African diaspora, Fawundu’s work upends national and temporal borders.

    En hommage à Samuel Paty Lettre de Camus à Louis Germain, son premier instituteur Cher Monsieur Germain, J'ai laissé s'éteindre un peu le bruit qui m'a entouré tous ces jours-ci avant de venir vous parler un peu de tout mon cœur. On vient de me faire un bien trop grand honneur, que je n'ai ni recherché ni sollicité. Mais quand j'ai appris la nouvelle, ma première pensée, après ma mère, a été pour vous. Sans vous, sans cette main affectueuse que vous avez tendue au petit enfant pauvre que j'étais, sans votre enseignement, et votre exemple, rien de tout cela ne serait arrivé. Je ne me fais pas un monde de cette sorte d'honneur mais celui-là est du moins une occasion pour vous dire ce que vous avez été, et êtes toujours pour moi, et pour vous assurer que vos efforts, votre travail et le cœur généreux que vous y mettiez sont toujours vivants chez un de vos petits écoliers qui, malgré l'âge, n'a pas cessé d'être votre reconnaissant élève. Je vous embrasse, de toutes mes forces. Albert Camus Extrait de la réponse de Monsieur Germain Avant de terminer, je veux te dire le mal que j'éprouve en tant qu'instituteur laïc, devant les projets menaçants ourdis contre notre école. Je crois, durant toute ma carrière, avoir respecté ce qu'il y a de plus sacré dans l'enfant: le droit de chercher sa vérité. Je vous ai tous aimés et crois avoir fait tout mon possible pour ne pas manifester mes idées et peser ainsi sur votre jeune intelligence.
