How To See Architecture – Walking Workshop: “Wednesday – Decorated Sheds”

March 29, 2023
1:30 PM – 5:30 PM
TBD
Workshop Cost:
$375 USD

Join Dan Klyn for this half-day workshop, which is designed to equip participants with the BASIC framework for looking at the architectures of complex systems.  

Attendees will get out of the conference hotel and into the streets of downtown New Orleans in a facilitated exploration of the myriad ways that features in the built environment are configured by people to store, distribute, and reify different kinds of information.

No special knowledge or equipment is required to participate, and the walking route for each of the two half-days is exactly the same.  The pace of the walk will be very slow, and the distance we’ll cover adds up to just under 1 mile. 

  • The DECORATED SHEDS session (Wednesday, March 29th in the PM) is focused on an analysis of Natchez Street, which connects the conference hotel to the Piazza.

Agenda

Klyn and up to 50 attendees will briefly muster in the lobby of the Intercontinental for a review of the Resources and Script for the workshop before sallying forth into the city to learn about the BASICs of seeing architecture through a close “reading” and analysis of Natchez Street, which connects the conference hotel to the Piazza.

  • Quick intro to Klyn’s BASIC Framework
  • Walk to Piazza di’ Italia
  • Walk back to the Intercontinental
  • Debrief and Q&A
