16.09.19 - Announcing the Daniels Faculty's 2019/2020 public programming series: Hindsight is 20/20
The John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design is pleased to announce its 2019-2020 public programming series: "Hindsight is 20/20."
The series will focus on phenomena that have emerged during the 20 years that have passed since the turn of the millennium – reflecting nearly the duration of a generation. During this time, what circumstances in the fields of architecture, landscape architecture, art, urban design, and forestry have changed? Our speakers and exhibitions will explore how our disciplines continue to be transformed by upheavals in technology, politics, and the environment.
Twenty keywords inspire our collection of talks, panels, and installations, drawn from annual lists of "words of the year" published by leading dictionaries and literary venues. These keywords reflect changes in consciousness and historical developments that have altered, in ways large and small, the contexts in which we work:
2000 Google (verb) / 2001 Internet of Things / 2002 Flash Mob / 2003 Social Media / 2004 Paywall / 2005 Carbon Neutral / 2006 Truthiness / 2007 Sharing Economy / 2008 Bailout / 2009 Instagram / 2010 Gamification / 2011 Occupy / 2012 Cloud / 2013 Niche / 2014 #blacklivesmatter / 2015 Truth and Reconciliation / 2016 <flame> Emoji / 2017 Unicorn / 2018 Toxic / 2019 Haptic
Join leading architects, designers, artists, ecologists, and urbanists at One Spadina to explore how reframing the recent past might help us better address the next 20 years, and beyond.
The Daniels Faculty’s Hindsight is 20/20 lecture series is open to all students, faculty, alumni, and members of the public. Online registration for each event is required.
Details for all public lectures can also be found on the Daniels Faculty’s website.
