It's great to be back. Our second season of Archinect Sessions premieres today in a new, shorter format, with an episode devoted to the Chicago Architecture Biennial, and featuring special guest Cynthia Davidson, director of Log and co-curator of the US Pavilion for the 2016 Venice Biennale. Keep a look out as well for more Mini-Sessions, featuring interviews from the Biennial.
In other podcasting news, we're going to be launching a brand new podcast early next week, focusing exclusively on interviews. You can keep up-to-date on all our podcasting news by following us on Twitter, @archsessions, and let us know what you think by rating us on iTunes.

I thought the original idea was to split the podcast into two parts? Does "launching a brand new podcast early next week" mean the interview portion will now be it's own branded entity?
Nam, yes, the plan was to split the old podcast into two: one podcast to discuss the news and current issues, and another podcast exclusively for interviews. The interview-only podcast will be be released each Monday, starting on Nov 9.
Oh, god, I'm mortified. I called Katherine Darnstadt of Latent Design by the incorrect name. All the derps land on me. Apologies, Katherine!
You say biennial, I say biennale. Let's call the whole thing off.
I wish I had read Zach Mortice's Architect Magazine article "Besting Venice" about the Biennial before we recorded. I would have focused more on Sarah Herda's quote about the selection of the title The State of the Art of Architecture:
"The directness of letting the ideas come from the architects themselves drew us to the 1977 event...It challenged architects to articulate what was at stake in their practices...It suggests a more open-ended dialogue and coexistence between radically different practices across the world, without the constraints of a specific overarching theme."
This is my stick horse, as Amelia said in the podcast. Why not both, yes is more, can't we all get along, a period of everything goes.
