107 _ Jeffrey Nesbit / Charles Waldheim_'Technical Lands'
Manage episode 412854199 series 2741100
Today’s conversation is with Jeffrey Nesbit and Charles Waldheim about their book Technical Lands.
It was great to have both Jeffrey and Charles back on the program. They’ve both been on here separately but today we’re discussing their new edited book ‘Technical Lands: A Critical Primer’. As they state in the book, designating land as technical is a political act and doing so entails dividing, marginalizing, and rendering portions of the Earth inaccessible. This is land that is often invisible and remote. The range of contributing authors includes architectural historians, landscape architects, anthropologists, sociologists as well as cultural and political geographers. This ‘deep bench’ of disciplinary practices is needed to better understand and draw out how technical lands are defined and maybe even more importantly, demonstrate why it’s necessary to bring them to the foreground of our conversations.
Hope you enjoy the episode and until next time... take care.
