Postopolis - blogs about architecture collide in NYC

Check this event Postopolis. out. (May 29 - June 2, 2007) The home blog pages of the organisers are (almost) all in the useful links in the sidebar at the right. After today I will be adding Inhabitat. At this early stage, the following links are really interesting:

  • City of Sound review of Postopolis presentation by Paul Seletsky of SOM
  • City of Sound review of Postopolis presentation by Matt Clark of Arup
  • Inhabit's Jill Fehrenbacher's presentation in Pecha Kucha style
  • I could not bring myself to listen to Lebbeus Woods yet again after wondering at the level of pretension in hearing him live in San Francisco some years ago... but if you have not encountered him, this could be of curiosity value - if only a la Derrida to hear the background to the person in order to (perhaps) understand his work?
I fully expect these links to grow and become more interesting as the diarists who are not as fast as City of Sound reflect on the event.

Hi Mike,

I actually went to two days of this, happened to be in NYC at the time. It was great fun, and really illuminating.

I did see/hear Lebbeus, who spoke without a visual presentation. It was a panel discussion with the bloggers, thus being more adlibbed Lebbeus came across as quite down-to-earth...he also has a very dry sense of humour.
