110427 - UHF en LA NOCHE DE LOS LIBROS MUTANTES

::: UHF participa en / UHF takes part in LA NOCHE DE LOS LIBROS MUTANTES ::: Conferencia y debate / Lecture and debate ::: La Casa Encendida ::: Ronda Valencia, 2 28012 Madrid ::: 18:00 :::

Surgidos en la más absoluta independencia creativa, institucional y comercial, los libros mutantes nacen, crecen y se reproducen a lo largo y ancho del planeta. Una noche al año, abandonan sus reinos subterráneos y se apropian de las calles de Madrid gracias a sus terribles superpoderes: papel, fotocopias, fotografías, grapas y una vocación artística inmune a los virus de la cultura oficial.

Esta web es un archivo online de libros mutantes, un criadero de subversiones, un registro de alimañas editoriales de vocación viral y alcance transnacional.

110418 - 100% ANALOG - LATIN GSD - HARVARD UNIVERSITY

::: BORDERLESS ::: Session 2: 100% Analog ::: What is unique about communicating design? :::

::: Latin America has shown to be also a context where borders between disciplines, nations and language seem to have been over passed by the new architectural and design practices and modes of communication ::: Borderless is a 3-series event to address the emerging and more established means of communication that Latin America is using, reusing and introducing to create, curate and talk about design: digital, analog, performance ::: Is this second session we will be addressing the role of the editor, the index of a more and more multidimensional society, the democratization of media, and the use of media to create design and collaborative practices from the perspective of publishers. How relevant is the curatorial space for design in Latin America, especially within a context where access and exposure to a global network has so far been limited? :::
