開催概要

建築、ランドスケープ、まちづくり、インターネットの相互作用で生まれる新しい専門領域に焦点を当てた年刊誌が生まれる。創刊号のテーマは農業。農業を取り巻くいくつかのテーマで論文や作品を募集し、入賞作品は創刊号に掲載される。

Themes
- Farming & Aesthetics: What are the aesthetics of forms of collective effort? In what way are they represented differently to individual acts?
- Farming & Data: How does the collection of information affect our cities, regions and nations? What are methods of data collection? What information infrastructures capitalize on the logic of farming to operate and how do they do that?
- Farming & Energy: How are existing and new models of energy harvested? What new possibilities show promise? How do these models affect our environment and our cities?
- Farming & Lifestyle: How have forms of farming guided our behavior and how we socialize? How does this exchange between individual behaviors become modified by collective influence?
- Farming& Urbanism: How can the city address our impending resource crisis? How are forms of collectivity impacting the contemporary city?
