Abstract:
Buffalo, NY presents a canvas for potential radical change, radically revised futures, radically alternative systems and most importantly, cultural practices that exist outside of any concept of the conventional market. This panel features practitioners and theorists based in Buffalo, whose work concerns the intersection of environmental, economic, cultural and technological factors in the revitalization and redefinition of the city in which they live. Panelists will sketch their forays into Buffalo’s wilderness, and discuss how their recent projects respond to and shape the city
