Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A Love Letter to the Unsayable: Xiaoxuan Huang's all the time Speaks Through Gaps, Echoes, and EllipsesBlending poetic fragment, philosophical inquiry, and spatial rupture, all the time traces queer longing as it moves across language, breath, and time.all the time is a meditative, genre-blurring work that explores the edges of queer longing, memory, and language. Composed as a durational long poem, Xiaoxuan Huang's debut moves through fragments, love letters, and lyric essays, where silence is not absence but active presence. Here, language stutters, hesitates, repeats--capturing the rhythm of desire, the dissonance of intimacy, and the complexity of speaking what resists articulation.Spanning the thresholds of poetics and theory, the text uses spatial interruption and elliptical syntax to mirror the body's halting attempts at connection. It is a work shaped by breath and time, where punctuation dissolves into pauses, and pages open like quiet rooms.At once rigorous and tender, all the time invites the reader into a porous, recursive experience of reading--one that unfolds slowly, insistently, and with profound care. A love poem to time, to listening, and to everything language cannot hold.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Enmeshed in Hong Kong's densely woven urban fabric, wedged between its towering mixed-use complexes and perched along its steep hillsides, sits a network of more than 500 miniature public parks comprising the smallest unit of the city's public open space network. Though plentiful, these so-called Sitting-out Areas - referred to locally as (literally: a 'three-cornered shit pit') - have never been considered in terms of the collective resource they have the potential to be. This book presents a series of critical essays revealing the city's Sitting-out Areas in relation to Hong Kong's planning histories and shifting terrains, while also tracking how these spatial fragments have been shaped by concepts of publicness, accessibility and regulation. The second half of the book presents 44 richly illustrated case studies revealing the variety and idiosyncrasies of Hong Kong's smallest open spaces. Ultimately, the book argues that we can understand the high-density city not only through its buildings, but through the character and potency of its interstitial landscapes.; Im dichten Stadtgefüge Hongkongs, entlang steiler Hänge und eingekeilt zwischen hoch aufragenden Wohn- und Bürohochhäusern, existiert ein Netzwerk von mehr als 500 öffentlichen Miniparks. Diese Kleinsteinheiten des städtischen Freiraums, als Sitting-out Areas oder im lokalen Sprachgebrauch auch als ('dreieckige Scheißgruben') bezeichnet, wurden bislang kaum als kollektive Ressource betrachtet. Vor dem Hintergrund von Hongkongs Stadtplanungsgeschichte und dem sich ständig verändernden Grund und Boden setzen sich die Autor\*innen kritisch mit den Sitting-out Areas auseinander. Sie erläutern, wie diese räumlichen Fragmente durch Konzepte der Öffentlichkeit, Zugänglichkeit und Regulierung entstanden sind. Daneben illustrieren sie in 44 reich bebilderten Fallstudien die Vielfalt und Eigenarten von Hongkongs Mini-Freiräumen - und zeigen, wie sich hochverdichtete Städte nicht nur über ihre Gebäude erfassen lassen, sondern auch über den Charakter und die Kraft ihrer Zwischenräume. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - From Crisis to Crisis examines how reading, writing and criticism can address the urgent issues faced by architecture today, including: the role of the architect in the era of specialization; the function of criticism in diverse political, economic and cultural contexts; and, the possibility of architectural education to take on history, theory, civic engagement and political participation. Drawn from an international public symposium organized in the spring of 2017 by the University of Hong Kong (HKU) Department of Architecture, the book is comprised in equal parts of focused essays and transcripts of the wide-ranging discussions. From Crisis to Crisis reflects Hong Kong's ongoing transformation from a gateway between China and the world, to a regional hub opening up a new milieu for the cultural, economic, and intellectual resources of Asia. The HKU Department of Architecture is part of this ongoing transformation, attracting thinkers from Asia, North America, Australia and Europe to engage in critical, relevant dialogues. The publication reflects this diversity and is characterized by its flexibility, contingency, vitality, and open-endedness. From Crisis to Crisis includes contributions from architects, writers and critics from around the world:Anthony Acciavati (USA), Founder & editor of Manifest; Columbia UniversityChris Brisbin (Australia), University of South AustraliaFrançoise Fromonot (France), Chief editor of Criticat; ENSA Paris-BellevilleSeng Kuan (USA), Harvard University Graduate School of DesignJonathan Massey (USA), University of MichiganGraham Mckay (UAE), University of SharjahKamran Afshar Naderi (Iran), Founder & editor of Memar Angelika Schnell (Austria), The Academy of Fine Arts-ViennaZhi Wenjun (China), Founder & editor of Time + Architecture; Tongji University.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This open access book traces the development of landscapes along the 414-kilometer China-Laos Railway, one of the first infrastructure projects implemented under China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and which is due for completion at the end of 2021. Written from the perspective of landscape architecture and intended for planners and related professionals engaged in the development and conservation of these landscapes, this book provides history, planning pedagogy and interdisciplinary framing for working alongside the often-opaque planning, design and implementation processes of large-scale infrastructure. It complicates simplistic notions of development and urbanization frequently reproduced in the Laos-China frontier region. Many of the projects and sites investigated in this book are recent 'firsts' in Laos: Laos's first wildlife sanctuary for trafficked endangered species, its first botanical garden and its first planting plan for a community forest. Most often the agents and accomplices of neoliberal development, the planning and design professions, including landscape architecture, have little dialogue with either the mainstream natural sciences or critical social sciences that form the discourse of projects in Laos and comparable contexts. Covering diverse conceptions and issues of development, including cultural and scientific knowledge exchanges between Laos and China, nature tourism, connectivity and new town planning, this book also features nine planning proposals for Laos generated through this research initiative since the railway's groundbreaking in 2016. Each proposal promotes a wider 'landscape approach' to development and deploys landscape architecture's spatial and ecological acumen to synthesize critical development studies with the planner's capacity, if not naive predilection, to intervene on the ground. Ultimately, this book advocates the cautious engagement of the professionally oriented built-environment disciplines, such as regional planning, civil engineering and landscape architecture, with the landscapes of development institutions and environmental NGOs.…
