The Temporary and the Intermediate: Strategies for a Better Dinner
This presentation will address the boundaries of temporary architecture. In my practice I develop projects with an agenda to provoke public space. The foundation of
the projects revolves around “program” as a way of developing space and with an eye to briefly reprogramming the city. Through various experiments and iterations
I developed what is called RAW:almond, a temporary culinary arts festival with a mandate for experimentation and collaboration. I will be addressing the motives
behind the project, its’ successes and failures, it’s political aspirations and realities and a call for more adaptive and responsive architecture that suits peoples needs
when they need them.
