ROB|ARCH 2018 accepts proposals for workshops until September 8th!

Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit proposals for two-day OR three-day workshops, which will be held September 10th – 12th, 2018. Workshop proposals with strong cross-disciplinary trajectories that actively integrate experts from multiple fields are highly encouraged, e.g. in the form of collaborative experimentation, complementary fields of knowledge, combination of various technologies, etc, leading to exciting practical work and other outputs with high impact potential.

Detailed information on the 2018 workshops and submission requirements can be found in the workshop proposal guidelines.

We look forward to receiving exciting workshop proposals from cross-disciplinary teams until Friday, September 8th!

Keynote – François Roche

We are pleased to announce that one of our Keynote Speakers at the Rob Arch 2016 conference will be:

François Roche
-President of the laboratory of research / New-territories
-Co-founder and Principal of R&Sie(n) / Studio of architectural practices / NYC-Paris
-Co-founder of [eIf/bʌt/c]/ Institute for contingent scenario / Bangkok
-Guest Research professor in master class in several universities (see below)

Through these different structures, his architectural works and protocols seek to articulate the real and/or fictional, the geographic situations and narrative structures that can transform them. www.new-territories.com

François Roche architectural designs and processes have been show at, among other places, Columbia University (New York, 1999-2000), UCLA (Los Angeles, 1999-2000), ICA (London, 2001), Mori Art Museum (Tokyo, 2004), Centre Pompidou (Paris, 2003), MAM / Musée d’Art Moderne (Paris, 2005, 2006), the Tate Modern (London 2006) and Orléans/ArchiLab  (1999, 2001, 2003). Work by R&Sie(n), New-Territories were selected for exhibition at the French pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennales of 1990, 1996, 2000 and 2002 (they rejected the invitation that year), and for the international section in 2000, 2004,2008, in 2010 both International and Austrian Pavilion, in 2012 with small multiple cessions (Dark Side Curating, Slovenian Pavilion, Writing Architecture), and in 2014 in Bembo Pavilion. In 2015, New-Territories was invited at Chicago Biennial and Acadia Cincinnati (as in 2008 in Minneapolis). Among the teaching positions held by François Roche over the last decade is guest professor at the Bartlett School in London in 2000, the Vienna TU in 2001, the Barcelona ESARQ in 2003-04, the Paris ESA in 2005, the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia in 2006, the Angewangde in Vienna in 2008, the USC-Los Angeles in 2009-10-11, the Gsapp Columbia, in the period 2006-2013, at Upenn, Philadelphia 2013-14, at RMIT Melbourne 2012-2015, and Michigan Ann Arbor 2015.

Call for Videos


“Carrara Robotics” by Jelle Feringa (Odico) and Lucas Terhall (Hyperbody). Submitted through the Rob|Arch 2014 Call for Videos with 158.000 playbacks so far.

 

Every two years, as part of the Rob|Arch conference on robotic fabrication in architecture, art, and design, we send out a Call for Videos and publish the best submissions on the Robots in Architecture Vimeo channel. The videos of the past years were accessed more than 1.3 million times, making the Vimeo channel a central hub for anyone investigating new and exciting robotic applications.

As part of this year’s Rob|Arch we are again asking architects, designers, researchers, artists and anyone else working with robots in a creative way to submit their videos as part of the Rob|Arch 2016 Call for Videos.

A multidisciplinary jury will view all videos and select the best submissions. The accepted videos will be properly referenced at all times and displayed without any advertisements. One initial still image will be added for each video, stating the title, author, and a Rob|Arch 2016 logo.

The videos will also be publicly shown to an expert-audience at the Rob|Arch 2016 Conference in Sydney.

To submit a video, please follow the instructions HERE.

How to Format the Appendix in ASA of a Research Document

In March, College of the Wharton Faculty of Enterprise in California, 2002 eliminated a student due to graduate in the spring. The student that was anonymous was supposedly removed as a result of “content misunderstanding” in his request. In basic Language, a deceptive software had been published by him. Even more lately, hot debate broke from Whartonis official MBA blog on the accusation an international student in its 2007 MBA class had gotten in to the method. (The accuser, an English native speaker, boasts to possess ghostwritten a lot of the studentis app.) Although the accusation’s details could not be corroborated, it can improve an interesting query: what size of a problem is currently ghostwriting in MBA applications?READ MORE
