Titled 'Landing', the mobile educational camp was the brain child of Danny Wills and Gian Maria Socci, who set up the workshop in order to explore new formats for education.</p> <p>After a successful first run, the duo (who co-founded the design laboratory <a href="https://archinect.com/spacesaloon" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Space Saloon</a>) are gearing up for round two. For their second annual iteration, titled 'Fieldworks', the team will look at the cumulative methods of scientific field research, questioning the approaches, techniques, and processes used to collect raw data outside of a laboratory setting.</p> <p>Design-build projects this year will be led by Andrew Kovacs of <a href="https://archinect.com/news/tag/667456/andrew-kovacs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Office Kovacs</a>, Zeina Koreitem &amp; John May of <a href="https://archinect.com/millionsarchitecture" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">MILLI&Oslash;NS</a>, and Kyle May (KMA). Additionally, daily workshops will be hosted by a range of professionals, from sound and media artists to historians and architects.&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScPUfKOThS4rB4fBY-LIxDzoF4sZ3Y6bcUTlenmRqDTV7gkTw/viewform" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Registrati...</a></p>
