March 15, 2023 @ 10:30 am – 12:00 pm EDT
What: Inaugural session of reading group for anthropologists interested in issues around ecological design and infrastructure in the anthropocene, emerging from the 2022 AAA Panel The Dialectics of Ecological Design: Practitioners of Hope and Doubt. Open to all members in the Eco Anthropology group. Make sure to sign in to your account to access the Video Room.
Reading: selections from Daniel Barber’s Modern Architecture and Climate: Design Before Air-Conditioning (https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691170039/modern-architecture-and-climate):
Introduction (“Architecture, Media, and Climate” 2-23); Chapter 6 (“Conditioning,” 246-269) and the conclusion (“The Planetary Interior,” 270-275).
