Cornell Journal of Architecture

08/05/2020

We are pleased to announce our next theme for the Cornell Journal of Architecture 12: After!

"We humans tend to find ourselves constantly grasping for an after, even as we face futures with a degree of apprehension. After is a portal to a future, to another condition, and to another sequence of events. While we're obliged to stand squarely within the present, as architects we're equally obliged to project our work into a hereafter that can be only loosely understood. And then we can hope that, in the aftermath, our intentions bear some resemblance to their consequences."

—Val Warke, Hallie Black, and the Editors, Cornell Journal of Architecture 12

For more information on submitting for the Cornell Journal of Architecture 12: After, please visit our website and download the submissions guide (http://cornelljournalofarchitecture.cornell.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/200507_CJoA12_Call-for-Abstracts_Instructions.pdf). The open call for abstracts is due on May 31.

The Cornell Journal of Architecture is a critical journal of architecture and urbanism produced by editors in the department of architecture at the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning at Cornell University.

Cornell Journal of Architecture 11: Fear launch in Milstein Hall on Wednesday was a fearfully good time! See you in New York City—more on that soon!

Anthropologists tell us that fear is an innate trait among most primate species, a principal aspect of learning-to-survive. At the same time, most of us primates seem equally adept at learning new fears, fears that are perhaps irrational and non-productive, and frequently enflamed by manipulative parties among our own species. Oddly, despite our theme, this may prove to be the most optimistic Cornell Journal of all. An awareness of fear has been known to inspire invention, imagination, and substantial change. Is the opposite of fearful—fearlessness perhaps?—a form of belligerence or ignorance, or is it found in determination or courage?—or is it perhaps a type of calm?—or of knowledge? Herein are some attempts at dispelling some of these fears.
