this & that
A gathering about climate and politics, architecture and ethics, academia and activism, networks and futures, models and utopias, being critical and being naive, transformations and resistance, rebellion and hope.
The event is an invitation to colleagues, collaborators and friends we've had the pleasure of meeting in various contexts over the years. We are coming together to connect ideas, to work, to swim, to eat, to talk about how to counter dichotomies and climate breakdown, how to dismantle modernist fragmentations, how to join forces.
