        <![CDATA[<p><strong>Thresholds 46: SCATTER!</strong><br />Editors: Anne Graziano and Eliyahu Keller</p>
<p>From treatises to TED talks; postcards to propaganda; etchings to drawings, films, and blogs, architecture moves in diverse and curious ways. It is these currencies, which give architecture its agency, its authority and life. And yet, despite the varied modes of its circulation, the majority of architecture&rsquo;s discursive knowledge reaches only a familiar audience. While contemporary means of information production and dispersal continue to exponentially grow and quicken, the circle of professional and discursive associations remains confined. Circulation,&nbsp;distribution,&nbsp;and access to knowledge are not exclusive matters of the discipline. Rather they extend past architectural limits to&nbsp;catalyze&nbsp;inquiries into hidden geographies and infrastructure, restricted access, and equity.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p><em>In 1951, <a href="/en/tag/mies-van-der-rohe">Mies van der Rohe</a> completed a house in <a href="/en/tag/plano">Plano</a>, <a href="/en/tag/illinois">Illinois</a> that was the epitome of his modernist ideals; with a steel structure surrounded entirely by glass walls the building perfectly connected the user with its idyllic natural setting, and it was - and is - venerated as a masterwork. A lesser-known story about the work is how its owner Dr Edith Farnsworth attempted to sue her architect, in a story of bitterness and unrequited love - but even less well-known, argues Nora Wendl, is the story of what really happened. In this excerpt from her essay "Uncompromising Reasons for Going West: A Story of Sex and Real Estate, Reconsidered," published in </em><a href="http://thresholdsjournal.com/43-Scandalous?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=archdaily.com" target="_blank">Thresholds </a><em><a href="http://thresholdsjournal.com/43-Scandalous?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=archdaily.com" target="_blank">issue 43: "Scandalous,"</a> Wendl examines the overblown and dubious assertions made about Farnsworth's intentions, finding that the truth may be much more simple: perhaps the Farnsworth House is just not a pleasant place to live.</em></p>]]>
