Production Sites: Resituating the culture of architectural knowledge
29-30 July 2015, London and 29-30 October 2015, Sydney

“Production sites is a symposium that scrutinises new cultures of architectural knowledge by examining the sites where knowledge is produced. As a discipline, architecture has largely framed knowledge through the idea of building types, formal styles or sites for design action. Yet participatory design modes, digital technologies, and event-based models present alternatives that probe the divisions between real and imaginary sites, experiential and ideatic encounters, aesthetics and technology. Thus Production sites is a response to fundamental transformations in terms of how cultural knowledge and meaning are currently produced.”

‘Architecture and Culture’ journal – Architecture & the spaces of information
“The printed book was used to communicate architecture as soon as it became available in the late fifteenth century, and is still being used today. Its dominance may be threatened by new types of medium, but some of its characteristics are likely to be copied in other media that may replace it. For the time being, no other media confers such intellectual respectability whatever its shortcomings may be for communication.’ —Alan Powers ‘The Architectural Book: Image and Accident’, 2002

Since Alan Powers wrote these words some time around 2002, shifts in practice, material, production and media environment have advanced the relationship between audience/user/reader and architectural space. Working between art, editorial design and architecture, between practice and scholarship, in this issue of Architecture and Culture we want to chart and explore the broad trajectory of these changing relationships as they emerge from appropriations of conventional publishing channels to take up more complex spatial dispositions.”
