Student Architect – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode, we’ll be exploring the topic of Arcology, an idea, movement, and culture of people looking to create highly-dense architecture that works to reduce the human environmental footprint in a radical way.  More specifically, we’ll look into the “experimental town” of Arcosanti, “an attempt at a prototype arcology, integrating the design of architecture with respect to ecology”. This “experimental town” and its citizens, shows a lot about how Architecture can transform not only the environment but the behaviors and thinking of people interacting with these radical spaces.

Episode 16 of the Student Architect Podcast features Jimmy Carter. He is an architect and member James and Jimmy, an architecture studio and dissemination unit whose practice delves into the breadth of architectural distribution and production. The studio believes that architecture is not merely material, and concentrates on the platforms through which architecture as a cultural production can take shape. In this way, projects are varied, mediums are numerous, and characters are fluid, but all is grounded in architectural creation.

Jimmy’s work has spanned architectural construction, curation, film, and audio exploration, and has subsequently been published in journals such as Pidgin Magazine, PLAT, Flat Out, Fresh Meat and MAS Context.

Thanks so much for listening!
