San Francisco 2108 A.D.
Tomorrow night in San Francisco, seven of the west coast's most exciting architecture firms will get together to discuss their role in this year's City of the Future competition, sponsored by the History Channel. The conversation starts at 7pm and it's located here. You can read more about the firms on the show's own website.And here's a much larger poster.

Hey, thanks a lot for the heads up on this! I made it out there and a lot of the ideas thrown around were really inspiring. The presentations were comprised of a mix of top-down, imposed visions of a recreated Bay Area and what a sort of ad-hoc, incremental urbanism, gently guided, might give rise to. The exhibits that each architectural firm threw together were amazing. These people can't have slept. The Hydro Net exhibit was an absolutely stunning recreation of the city along with a projected, distributed network of subterranean tunnels and bioluminescent algae architecture that flowered out above the surface at points. Brilliant.
I think we all just need to make an agreement never to name a project "third life".
Honestly that's the fourth or fifth third life I've seen or heard about!!
