Ultra Exposure (Saturday)
07.16.11, (Time TBD): The Tateuchi Democracy Forum
• Moderator: Sylvia Lavin, Chair of the Ph.D. in Architecture program and Professor of Architectural History and Theory at UCLA
• Ultra Exposure will bring together an international roster of speakers to explore the continued relevance of the 1970 Osaka Expo for thinking about the future city and the potential of design and technology to instigate positive change. Lectures and panels will discuss the interactions between experimental architecture and new media technologies and reveal their role in shaping our interactions with the urban environment. The symposium will feature architects and artists who participated in the original expo, historians and theorists concerned with our understanding of how seemingly fleeting spectacles - like the fantastical architecture of world’s fairs, the seductions of new gadgets and the euphoria of imagining future utopias - determine the expectations we make of the present in both significant and enduring ways. The symposium will conclude with contemporary designers who continue to explore the intersections of architecture, media and the development of global culture.
