Mapping Design Systems: a Critical Analysis of Architectural Narratives through Archives

Date: 

Tuesday, November 14, 2023, 6:00pm to 7:00pm

Location: 

RCCHU Conference Room, 26 Trowbridge St. and over Zoom

This lecture will focus on the archival research and design ethnography developed by Gabriel Hernández as a UPM Doctoral Fellow and Fulbright Visiting Fellow at Yale School of Architecture and MIT's History, Theory and Criticism of Art and Architecture department.

 

The scope of this research is based on the critical analysis of architectural practice and narrative-making, the transfer of pedagogies into practice and the study of visual communication strategies by combining archival items and oral history-making. Two projects will be discussed: Archaeology of Practice, focused on the analysis of media, agency and design systems as part of his doctoral research, and Building a Collective Archive exhibition, an exhibition co-curated at Yale School of Architecture which unpacks the creation of a collective design imaginario.
