Internet ha tenido un profundo impacto sobre como se ejerce y como se enseña la arquitectura. El “donde” ya no es importante, y el “quienes” se ha ampliado de un reducido círculo a amplias redes. Algunas instituciones lo han asumido, otras se resisten.
En este contexto la Graduate School of Design de Harvard ha organizado una serie de charlas para abordar los efectos de esto en América Latina, evento en el cual participará Plataforma Arquitectura el próximo Martes 8 de Marzo a las 12:30 horas.
América Latina ha mostrado ser un contexto donde los límites entre las disciplinas, naciones y lenguajes parecen haber sido sobrepasados por las nuevas prácticas de arquitectura y diseño y los medios de comunicación.
El rol del editor, el indicator de una sociedad cada vez más multidimensional, la democratización de los medios, el uso de los medios para crear prácticas de diseño y colaboración. Cuán relevante es el espacio curatorial para el diseño en América Latina, especialmente en un contexto donde el acceso y la exposición a una red global ha sido limitado?
Borderless es una serie de eventos para revisar los medios emergentes y establecidos que América Latina está usando, reusando e introduciendo para crear y hablar sobre el diseño: digital, análogo, performance.

Latin America has shown to be also a context where borders between disciplines, nations and language seem to have been over passed by the new architectural and design practices and modes of communication.
The role of the editor, the index of a more and more multidimensional society, the democratization of media, the use of media to create design and collaborative practices. How relevant is the curatorial space for design in Latin America, especially within a context where access and exposure to a global network has so far been limited?
Borderless is a 3-series event to address the emerging and more established means of communication that Latin America is using, reusing and introducing to create, curate and talk about design: digital, analog, performance.
