Vitality in Architecture II

The Italian video artist, filmmaker, producer and publisher Ila Bêka is a part of the artist duo Bêka&Lemoine, whose films delve into the complex relationship between our daily lives and the built environment. Through their unique lens and experimental storytelling, they explore the nuances of human behaviour and spatial identities in architecture and urbanism. ‍ This episode is the second part of the interview, where we talk about how a documentary film can work as an ethnographic tool when conducting architectural research. Ila reflects on his experiences and filmmaking approaches which emphasize the ordinary habits of people in relation to contemporary architecture and urban environment. Join us as we investigate the stories and thoughts behind architectural-film-classics such as The Infinite Happiness and Barbicania, as well as their latest film, Big Ears Listen with Feet, which premiered at the 2022 edition of Copenhagen Architecture Festival. Participants: - Ila Bêka, filmmaker and architect. A part of the artist duo Bêka&Lemoine  - Nikola Salacz, Architectural and human researcher, CAFx program intern. Producer: Nikola Salacz
