RPI Fall 09′ Lecture Series
And so it begins…. This is the poster for the RPI Architecture Lecture Series this semester. The lineup looks great and Dean Evan Douglis has secured the EMPAC Center http://empac.rpi.edu/ for all of the events. The space in and of itself is amazing an this is another reason to take the trip up and see it.
The Curtis R. Priem Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC) opened its doors in 2008 and was hailed by the New York Times as a “technological pleasure dome for the mind and senses… dedicated to the marriage of art and science as it has never been done before.”Founded by Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, EMPAC offers artists, scholars, researchers, engineers, designers, and audiences opportunities for creative exploration that are available nowhere else under a single roof. EMPAC operates nationally and internationally, attracting creative individuals from around the world and sending new artworks and innovative ideas onto the global stage.
EMPAC’s building is a showcase work of architecture and a unique technological facility that boasts unrivaled presentation and production capabilities for art and science spanning the physical and virtual worlds and the spaces in between.
It is a 2.5hr train ride out of the city but we are attempting to get a copy of all the lectures and make them available some time soon.
