119 — Architectural Vibe Check

In our last episode of 2024 we thought we would do something a little bit different, and talk about where we think architectural culture is at right now, an archaeology of the present, a dissection of the Now. We took some suggestions and requests from our Patrons, and followed them from recent discoveries at the National Gallery to Kengo Kuma and the Las Vegas Sphere. Some of the stories we talked about: National Gallery: https://www.theartnewspaper.com/2024/08/27/sainsbury-wing-contractors-find-1990-letter-from-donor-anticipating-their-demolition-of-false-columns Architectural unionisation: https://jacobin.com/2024/10/bernheimer-architecture-union-faect-cio Matt's essay about AI: https://recessed.space/00186-AI-neural-networks-architecture-AI Thank you to everyone for watching, listening, reviewing, subscribing and supporting us on Patreon this year!
