INDESEM 2021 will take place 29th of May – 3rd of June.
*You can apply from 9th -23rd of April*
The program of the INDESEM seminar week consists of lectures, excursions and a workshop, all organized around a specific contemporary theme. Every edition of the seminar aims to raise awareness about this theme and its consequences for the architectural practice. The seminar provides an environment in which students, tutors, architects and theorists engage in conversation and discussion about the current and future position of the architect within society.
INDESEM 2021: ‘DATASCAPE’
Today, the built environment is rapidly becoming an intersection between the physical and the digital worlds. The rise of the digital world is challenging the traditional design process. Data influences many aspects of our lives; from the ads we see on our social media feeds to the music recommendations on our Spotify pages. Every action, feeling and step taken in the buildings we design can now be quantified. However, the impact of Big Data on our physical spaces remains unclear. How could data – about how people live, breathe and move through the projects we create - influence our future architectural designs?
INDESEM.21 offers you the chance to have personal conversations with architects at the forefront of the digital revolution.
Speakers announced:
- Norman Foster (foster + partners)
- Ben van Berkel (un studio)
- Kim Herforth Nielsen (3XN)
- Caro van de Venne (barcode architects)
- Wessel van Beerendonk (studio RAP)
- Lennaert van Capelleveen (architech company)
- Sanne van der Burgh (MVDRV)
and more speakers will be announced soon.
You will have a unique opportunity to ask the questions you have always wanted to ask renowned architects. INDESEM.21 will challenge your creative abilities by asking you to step outside your comfort zone and connect with an international audience. Besides lectures, workshops and excursions, you will also work on a small design brief with a group of international students. ‘Together with architecture students from around the world, you will determine the vision for the future of architecture and data.’
