This prompted speculation that vandals, or right-wing extremists opposed to refugees, were responsible.</p> https://archinect.com/features/article/97105527/interview-with-john-szot-of-architecture-and-the-unspeakable-film-series Interview with John Szot of "Architecture and the Unspeakable" film series Amelia Taylor-Hochberg 2014-04-04T17:45:00-04:00 >2021-05-22T11:16:04-04:00 <img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/0j/0jjezgt975e02hay.jpg?fit=crop&auto=compress%2Cformat&enlarge=true&w=1200" border="0" /><p><em>Architecture and the Unspeakable</em> is a triptych of short, magnificently animated films, each exploring a different symptom of architecture&rsquo;s vulnerabilities. Produced by <a href="http://archinect.com/brooklyndigitalfoundry" target="_blank">Brooklyn Digital Foundry</a> and directed by architect John Szot, the films feature architecture proposals from <a href="http://archinect.com/firms/cover/1556/john-szot" target="_blank">John Szot Studio</a>, imagining distinct fictional buildings in New York, Tokyo, and Detroit -- all animated in striking digital realities.</p>
