Architecture Research: Theory, History and Practice
The seminars are a new research collaboration between the Manchester School of Architecture, Liubliana University and Lusófona University (Porto and Lisbon). The online sessions comprising talks about ongoing research followed by questions and discussion are open access. The seminars aim to encourage academic exchange between researchers and postgraduate students working in cognate areas. The intention of the project is to build an international network of shared interest across the architectural sector, to think critically and philosophically about architecture, design and research to foster new forms of research enquiry.
Andrew Ballantyne – “Bassae and the Fled Gods” | 27 de Janeiro, 14h30
Andrew Ballantyne will reflect on how we have a tendency to see Greek temples through the lens of the Picturesque.
Andrew Ballantyne practised as an architect and has been a researcher in architecture, architectural theory and architectural history. He was appointed Professor of Architecture at Newcastle University in 2000 and has supervised PhDs and assessed architecture submissions to the Research Excellence Framework. His research works include Tudoresque: In Pursuit of the Ideal Home (with Andrew Law, 2011) and Architecture, Landscape and Liberty: Richard Payne Knight and the Picturesque (1997). He is best known for Architecture: A Very Short Introduction (2002). He would like you to know about his new book, Classical Architecture (2023).
Esta semana partilho uma vez mais o convite para seguirem a conferência de Maria Otero, sexta-feira, 24 de Fevereiro às 14h30, a terceira sessão do Ciclo de Internacional de Conferências – Architecture: Design and Research International Seminar – , dedicado às doutorandas e doutorandos da Universidade Lusófona,
Porto e Lisboa, em articulação com as universidades de Manchester – Manchester School of Architecture – e Liubliana – Univerza Ljubljani, e aberto a todas e todos os interessados.
Title: Future Storage: on digital preservation and data decay
The world is experiencing an unprecedented demand for data storage. Data centre capacity dictates the rhythms of everyday life. It is critical to fields such as planning, climate science, and healthcare and fundamental to delivering developments in AI, the Internet of Things, and the Metaverse – which demand vast amounts of data stored for extended periods. As digital-data production is outpacing the scalability of today’s storage solutions, data centre architecture becomes a critical site of investment and innovation. This thriving industry, however, is dependent on extractivist practices and involves vast energy consumption, land occupation, and CO2 emissions. It is fuelled by outdated notions of progress and endless growth. As a result, creating these profit-driven digital worlds results in the degradation of communities and ecosystems and puts the only world we all inhabit at risk. In this lecture we will explore alternative architecture paradigms for storing data.

João Soares
Arquitecto pela FAUP e doutorado pelo IUAV é professor associado no Departamento de Arquitectura_Escola de Artes da Universidade de Évora.
Director do Departamento de Arquitectura e Coordenador da Linha de Investigação em Arquitectura do CHAIA, dirigiu o programa de Doutoramento entre 2013 e 2020.
Desde o início do percurso de ensino na UÉvora, em 2004, integrou as diferentes equipas de construção dos Planos de Estudo e correspondentes relatórios (PERA) do Departamento de Arquitectura – do MI e PhD.
Comissário de exposições de Arquitectura: “Disegnare nelle Città”, com Álvaro Siza e Gabriele Basilico; “Siza, uma Malagueira plural”; “Polska Arkitectur”.
Traduz regularmente textos de crítica de Arquitectura do italiano para o português: “Contra a Arquitetura” (Caleidoscópio); “Mendes da Rocha uma Veneza imaginada” (Dafne).
Integra a programação da Rádio Antecâmara – projecto pioneiro de Pedro Campos Costa – onde realiza o programa “Memorial de Ares, experiências contadas do espaço”.
Colabora com o diário digital “Algarve Informativo”, onde é autor das “Memórias do Polvo”.
Enquadra a investigação que desenvolve no âmbito das relações entre prática e ensino/aprendizagem, convocando a fertilidade da experiência no acto de pensar e operar arquitectonicamente. As questões de processo e da relação entre o domínio racional e prático são centrais, ocupando a dimensão peripatética particular relevância.
The PhD in Architecture from Lusófona University, Manchester School of Architecture and University of Ljubljana invites you to the Doctoral Class included in the International Seminar Architecture: Design and Research. The Seminar gather a series of online SEMINARS for researchers and postgraduate students organised by Prof Maria Rita Pais, Prof Ana Neiva, Prof Carlos Guimarães, Prof Dana Arnold, Prof. Tadeja Zupančič and Prof. Spela Hudnik.

This week: 27 January 2022 at 14:30 (Lisbon time) Andrew Ballantyne – “Bassae and the Fled Gods”
Os Departamentos de Arquitectura da Universidade Lusófona de Lisboa e do Porto estão a organizar um seminário de conferências – Arquitectura: Concepção e Investigação – para o presente ano lectivo de 2020-21 do Doutoramento em Arquitectura.
***
The Architecture Departments of Lusófona University of Lisbon and Oporto are organizing a seminar – Architecture: Design and Research – for the current academic year.
Arquitectura: Concepção e Investigação Sinopse: Um dos objectivos do seminário consiste em debater dialéticas entre a prática da arquitectura e a investigação em arquitectura, analisando, com base em percursos autorais consolidados, o tipo de relações que se podem estabelecer entre estes dois domínios profissionais. A investigação arquitetónica fundamenta a prática da arquitetura? E, será a prática do projecto uma base de investigação segura? De onde surge a motivação por assuntos a investigar? O património é um factor comum de estímulo? Existem outros factores? Podemos admitir que existem métodos comuns ou métodos adaptados entre a prática da arquitetura e a investigação? De que forma a sociedade e comunidades específicas podem beneficiar com arquitectura fundamentada em resultados obtidos com a investigação independente? Propomos a apresentação de um conjunto de conferências de autores arquitectos e investigadores com leituras pertinentes e significativas no domínio do conhecimento científico, propostas metodológicas heterogéneas e relações de disseminação abrangentes e distintivas.
Architecture: Design and Research Synopsis: One of the objectives for this Architecture: Design and Research Seminar is to debate the dialectics between the practice of architecture and research in architecture, analyzing, based on consolidated author paths, the type of relationships that can be established between these two professional domains. Does architectural research support the practice of architecture? And, is the project’s practice a safe research base? Where does the motivation for investigating issues come from? Is heritage a common stimulus factor? Are there other factors? Can we admit that there are common methods or methods adapted between the practice of architecture and research? We propose the presentation of a set of conferences held by architects and researchers with relevant and significant readings in the field of scientific knowledge, heterogeneous methodological proposals and wide and distinctive dissemination relationships.
