RAPS Eindhoven 2022 Conference: Radical Entanglements
Radical Architecture Practice for Sustainability (RAPS) Eindhoven 2022 Conference ‘Radical Entanglements’ acknowledges architecture and architectural practice as fundamentally entangled with the world, affective and affected. We are entangled, with each other, with our environments, architectures, other species, infrastructures, technologies, politics and more, in ways that are increasingly threatening our own conditions of existence. Despite this significance, these entanglements are not understood or explored in-depth as yet. The necessity for systemic change appears to be obvious, but how to enact transformations that are sufficiently radical is still unclear.
This conference explores diverse forms of practices, processes and modes across and within architecture through its heterogenous entanglements. At its core sustainability is about entanglements: of different actors, different entities, different scales, different timeframes, as well as the long-term affects of actions that result from them. We aim to draw out how these entanglements frame specific problems, exchange impacts and create potential solutions.
We seek to explore practices, processes and modes of operation through entangled relationships geared towards re-thinking architectural design and research practice for sustainability with the aim to advocate innovative approaches and transformational change.
