Temporalities, Processes, & Relations
AHRA 2019 PhD Student Symposium
University of Manchester, UK 2019

The AHRA Research Student Symposium 2019 takes as its starting point a broad and prolonged transition occurring in architectural research during the past decade. New and interdisciplinary approaches emerge as a result of our world’s socio-political and techno-ecological transformations towards relational, processual "architectural research." These changes move away from descriptions and interpretations of a static formal “Architecture” focused on particular buildings and architects.

Following this interdisciplinary and processual turn, the 2019 AHRA PhD student symposium aims to bring together architectural researchers who work towards re-writing and redrawing traditional notions of essence, fixity, boundedness, and flatness. We are interested in architectural research that:

 

  • Follows people, buildings, infrastructures, non-humans, landscapes, and materials.
  • Traces the ecological, the technical, the spatial, the temporal, the political, the economic, and the historical.
  • Stimulates thinking and action across scales, forms, and collectives.
