In this installment of Cross-Talk #9 — The Architecture Play, Ivan Bernal presents a personal account on how Play could be understood as a way to jump-start the discipline.

The role of Archinect’s series Cross-Talk is to bring forward the positive aspects of the polemic and allow for the resulting conflict to bring to life an otherwise still and comfortable climate of creativity—if there can be one. Cross-Talk attempts—if to only say that it did—to allow text the freedom that the image has accepted and embraced. Cross-Talk attempts to force the no, to contradict itself, to anger, to please and then anger again, if only to force a stance, to pull out the position of the self, of the discipline and of the hour as a means to begin and maintain conversations moving forward.

2019-03-11T09:30:00-04:00

In this 9th installment of our ongoing series Cross-Talk, we are looking at the role of Play in Architecture and how it might find its way to a naive and revitalized foundation for disciplinary foundations.
