Skateboarding, Action, and Architecture
October 23: PIFAS
Faculty-member Brandon Joyce shares his inexpert opinions on how it is action that anoints architecture with meaning. Calling on street-skating as a high model, he'll speak about how use, misuse, and transformation can override- or even negate- intent and expression in architectural design.
The talk will be short and followed by a discussion on the topics... and, of course, more skate videos.
Coffee will be served.
8PM
Free and Open to the Public
PIFAS
Architecture Without Architects

TONIGHT< YOU ARE FORGIVEN
Space 1026 friend Matt Leines will be signing copies of his new book "You Are Forgiven" (Free News Projects, 2008) tonight at the MEGAWORDS STOREFRONT from 7-9pm.
Tonight will be the world's first chance to see this brand new hardcover, 144 page extravaganza. It features new essays by Gary Panter and Taylor McKimmens and a ton of images. This book is brand new, so new that there are not even images of it floating around the interweb yet, so yes, tonight will really be the first chance to see it. No lie.
So stop by, meet Matt, get a book, drink a beer.
