Product Description
Product Description
From classical work to the modern object, and from the modern industrial to "computerized" procedures, the interplay between author and user has become closer, more direct, more open. How does this increasing complicity affect architectural practice? How can architecture be conceived as a more fluid informational development? Publishing architecture is much more than displaying a recently finished product in which the architect is the unique author. To make architecture is a real undertaking in which numerous authors participate; it is based on the processing of information before, during and after the materialization of the building. This first issue of the new boogazine "Verb" deals with the present relationship between information and authorship in architectural practice, featuring works and texts by Manuel de Landa, Jorge Wagensberg, FOA Architects, Sadar & Vuga, njiric & njiric, Love, Lacaton & Vassal. This volume is also available in French (ISBN 84-89698-87-2) and Spanish (84-89698-88-0).

Worth reading, but curious of what's next., 15 May 2003
By KIM ZYI YONG "delicraft" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Verb Processing (Architecture Boogazine) (Paperback)
I've read the majority of it, and now I could say that it's worth reading 'Verb' for those who would like to know how we can find/generate a kind of new concept and develop it into buildable form in the state of uncertainty. I think projects and buildings in 'Verb' are quite good examples. And the word 'boogazine' is pretty interesting because it implies that the new controversial topics like things in magazines and little old undoubtful ones like in referential books would be combined into one so that the main concept of so-called new architecture, which is neither single assertion nor definite, can be well-expressed. BUT I've felt a bit boring about its contents. Most of them could not tell us things different from what Jeffrey Kipnis wrote in 'Towards a New Architecture' and what Deleuze describe world, which means the majority of articles/books after his are similar to one another and not progress further.
Is it time to see a new one or fine architectural result based on the philosophy of Deleuze?
I hope 'Verb' will be another step forward to it.

Exceptionally striking bookazine needs attention!, 17 May 2003
By KIM ZYI YONG "delicraft" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Verb Processing (Architecture Boogazine) (Paperback)
A new type of publication 'bookazine' does match to what 'Verb' has. What 'Verb' is all about is both conceptual and constructional progress in the field of architecture in recent years. It shows us selected good examples which manage to cope with the state of uncertainty by paying attention to the development of design process. Changing paradigm gives rise to changing type of publication.

Worth a subscription. Groundbreaking, 20 Nov 2002
By P. Nagy "revreader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Verb Processing (Architecture Boogazine) (Paperback)
Exceptional production values enhance this well illustrated and innovatively designed book-magazine (produced in a French and Spanish edition too) that includes critical and theoretical essays on design and architectural topics. Planned to issue three issues annually. Recommended.
