DESIGNING WITH DEMONS. Open lecture by Rachel Armstrong
On March 30th at 6 pm, the Open Lecture Series of the architecture faculty will be happy to present Newcastle-based architect and academic Rachel Armstrong at Kanuti Gildi SAAL (Pikk 20, Tallinn). Armstrong focusses on living architecture and believes that to improve sustainability, we should connect our buildings to the nature, not cut them off from it, and will in her lecture focus on what it means to design for a lively unpredictable world. What happens when a city starts to grow the same way nature does? Open Lectures are open to all architecture and design students, professionals and general audience intrigued by spatial and design matters: the lectures are in English and free of charge.
Rachel Armstrong is Professor of Experimental Architecture at Newcastle University and an internationally acclaimed academic and pioneer in innovating environmental solutions and interdisciplinary practice. She designs and engineers architectural applications in the built environment, which are based on the properties of life-like chemical and biological systems. She produces prototypes that have been internationally exhibited at festivals such as the Venice Biennale (2010; 2015), which demonstrate how it may be possible to harness the properties of living systems to address environmental solutions. She also consults with industry to advise on convergent technologies and low carbon solutions.
She is also a 2010 Senior TED Fellow who is establishing an alternative approach to sustainability that couples with the computational properties of the natural world to develop a 21st century production platform for the built environment, which she calls ‘living’ architecture.
Armstrong is looking into Tallinn more deeply this year also in connection with the Tallinn Architecture Biennale TAB 2017, due to being on the jury of the international TAB Vision Competition, which focusses on Paljassaare Peninsula area and ends on 25th April 2017.
At the Open Lecture Series internationally renowned architects, artists, theoreticians, critics and urbanists from all around the globe give talks to offer fresh perspectives on architecture, design, urban development and critical thought. The lectures are open to everyone interested in the future of our living environment. The lectures are held in English, free of charge.

Open lecture: JOSE SANCHEZ – Architectures for the Commons, 16.03 at 6PM
On March 16th at 6 pm, the Open Lecture Series of the architecture faculty will be happy to present Los Angeles-based architect, programmer and game designer Jose Sanchez at Kanuti Gildi SAAL (Pikk 20, Tallinn). Open Lectures are open to all architecture and design students, professionals and general audience intrigued by spatial and design matters: the lectures are in English and free of charge.
Sanchez is partner at Bloom Games, start-up built upon the BLOOM project, winner of the WONDER SERIES hosted by the City of London for the London 2012 Olympics. The pink neon coloured BLOOM was conceptualised as an urban toy, a distributed social game and collective “gardening” experience that seeks the engagement of people in order to construct fuzzy BLOOM formations. He is also the director of the Plethora Project (www.plethora-project.com), a research and learning project investing in the future of online open-source knowledge. In 2016, he was recognized widely as the creator of Block’hood, a city simulator video game exploring notions of crowdsourced urbanism named by the Guardian one of the most anticipated games of 2016.
Sanchez has taught and guest lectured in several renowned institutions across the world, including the Architectural Association in London, the University of Applied Arts (Angewandte) in Vienna, ETH Zurich, The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London, and the Ecole Nationale Supérieure D’Architecture in Paris.
Today, he is an Assistant Professor at USC School of Architecture in Los Angeles. His research ‘Gamescapes’, explores generative interfaces in the form of video games, speculating in modes of intelligence augmentation, combinatorics and open systems as a design medium.

OPEN LECTURE: JELLE FERINGA, 16.02 at 6PM
What strings architecture, economy, robotics & modernity together? Open Lecture by Jelle Feringa
On February 16th at 6 pm, the Open Lecture Series of the Faculty of Architecture will be happy to present Dutch architect Jelle Feringa at Kanuti Gildi SAAL (Pikk 20, Tallinn). For the last few years, Feringa has been working on projects that try to harness the full potential of robots in architecture, building up Danish architectural robotics company Odico. In Tallinn, Feringa will talk about the changes that robotics are bringing to architecture and to the cities around us. In the future, what will the role of the architect be? Open Lectures are open to all architecture students, professionals and general audience intrigued by spatial matters: the lectures are in English and free of charge.
In addition to the open lecture, Feringa will give a small workshop in Tallinn on the following day, focussing on introducing students to the new robot of the Estonian Academy of Arts architecture department and testing its capabilities. “This is one of the most important issues of contemporary architecture: how to transfer digital information into physical material without compromising the geometry and spatial structure and yet with obtainable financial and time resources. Using robots is one of the ways to make sure geometrically intricate spaces and shapes can be transferred from digital world into our daily material experiences,” explains Dean of Faculty of Architecture Toomas Tammis.
Jelle is co-founder and CTO at Odico formwork robotics the first factory to specialize in architectural robotics. He is co-founder of EZCT Architecture & Design Research The work of the office is widely exhibited, exhibitions include the Mori Art Museum, Tokyo, Archilab, Orléans, Barbican Gallery, London Design, Miami/Basel and is part of the permanent collection of the Centre Pompidou, Paris. Jelle is a PhD candidate at the Hyperbody research group, TU Delft. His efforts in architectural robotics, both industrial and experimental are currently on display at the Zaha Hadid gallery in London, as part of the Meta Utopia exposition.

OPEN LECTURE: JELLE FERINGA, 16.02 at 6PM
Thursday 16 February, 2017
What strings architecture, economy, robotics & modernity together? Open Lecture by Jelle Feringa
On February 16th at 6 pm, the Open Lecture Series of the Faculty of Architecture will be happy to present Dutch architect Jelle Feringa at Kanuti Gildi SAAL (Pikk 20, Tallinn). For the last few years, Feringa has been working on projects that try to harness the full potential of robots in architecture, building up Danish architectural robotics company Odico. In Tallinn, Feringa will talk about the changes that robotics are bringing to architecture and to the cities around us. In the future, what will the role of the architect be? Open Lectures are open to all architecture students, professionals and general audience intrigued by spatial matters: the lectures are in English and free of charge.
In addition to the open lecture, Feringa will give a small workshop in Tallinn on the following day, focussing on introducing students to the new robot of the Estonian Academy of Arts architecture department and testing its capabilities. “This is one of the most important issues of contemporary architecture: how to transfer digital information into physical material without compromising the geometry and spatial structure and yet with obtainable financial and time resources.
