Join us on 27 Feb 2024 for the finale event of CSM's fourth Digital Innovation Season, Spacesuits: A Wearable Architecture.
Nicholas De Monchaux will be delivering a keynote lecture to conclude Digital Innovation Season, followed by a Q&A session.
The keynote will explore how the twenty-one-layer Apollo spacesuit, made by Playtex, was a triumph of intimacy over engineering.
In Spacesuit, Nicholas de Monchaux tells the story of the twenty-one-layer spacesuit in twenty-one chapters. He addresses a different topic in each, relevant to the suit, the body, and the technology of the twentieth century, including: eighteenth-century androids, Christian Dior's New Look, Atlas missiles, cybernetics and cyborgs, latex, JFK's carefully cultivated image, the CBS lunar broadcast soundstage, NASA's Mission Control, and the applications of Apollo-style engineering to city planning.
The twenty-one-layer spacesuit, de Monchaux argues, tells us about redundancy and interdependence and about the distinctions between natural and man-made complexity. It teaches us to know the virtues of adaptation and to see the future as a set of possibilities rather than a scripted scenario.The event will be held onsite at Central Saint Martins for UAL students only. External attendees can watch the event broadcast live on YouTube. A link will be sent prior to the event start date. About the speaker:Nicholas de Monchaux is Professor and Head of Architecture at MIT. Until 2020 he was Professor of Architecture and Urban Design, and Craigslist Distinguished Chair in New Media at UC Berkeley, where he also served as Director of the Berkeley Center for New Media. De Monchaux is the author of Spacesuit: Fashioning Apollo (MIT Press, 2011), an architectural and urban history of the Apollo Spacesuit, winner of the Eugene Emme award from the American Astronautical Society and shortlisted for the Art Book Prize, as well as Local Code: 3,659 Proposals about Data, Design, and the Nature of Cities (Princeton Architectural Press, 2016). His design work has been exhibited widely, including at the Biennial of the Americas, the Venice Architecture Biennale, The Lisbon Architecture Triennial, SFMOMA, the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, the Storefront for Art and Architecture and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago. His work has been supported by the MacDowell Colony, the Santa Fe Institute, the Smithsonian Institution, the Hellman Fund, and the Bakar Fellows Program. He is a Fellow of the American Academy in Rome.

M29***10

親測，逛博物館一定要購買講解服務。今天上午打卡大英博物館。幸運的是我英明的選擇了購買了更貴的高級講解。戴安娜老師的講解，全程生動有趣，且不乏專業性。不但告訴你看到了什麼，並能深入淺出的了解展品背後的歷史，讓你體會各個文化的特點，還能對比華夏文明的不同。戴安娜老師，像一位智者不但分享展品的故事，更展現英國特殊的人文感召力，以及一位親歷者的感受。其淵博的知識，北京人的文化底蘊。更是讓我們感受到情切，流連忘返。同行的團友分分決定補聽1小時。安娜老師還會分享最佳機位，讓你紅出朋友圈。
