The following is an initial list of readings that might be of interest to anyone researching experimental geography. It includes key theoretical texts on the nature of space, texts on locative media, and works on radical cartography. Many of them cross over into game theory, cyberfeminism, relations between real and virtual spaces, surveillance, tactical media, psychogeography, situationism, sound art, networked cultures, site-specific installation art, and other related sub-themes. It's tempting to sort these into temporal or topical categories, but to do so might be to inappropriately compartmentalize an ongoing discourse that moves in new directions every day.

In the early 1960s, the avant-garde architectural group - Archigram - set out to find hypothetical ways of creating alternative buildings and cities for people to live and work in. Their ultra-modern visions drew inspiration from modular technology and early space capsules - as well as the natural environment. One of our guest editors, architect Zaha Hadid, wanted to look back at the Archigram's visions. She invited one of its members, Sir Peter Cook, to explain some of his designs - including one that became a reality.

ccLearn is pleased to announce the publication of a research report entitled, “What Status for Open? An Examination of the Licensing Policies of Open Educational Organizations and Projects.” We encourage you to read the whole report, which you can find in several formats, along with an FAQ, on the ccLearn website. The report asks, “What makes an educational resource “open”? Is it enough that resources are available on the World Wide Web free of charge, or does openness require something more?” These questions have become more urgent as the open education movement has gained momentum and as potential users of open educational resources (OERs) increasingly face uncertainty about whether permission is required when they translate, reuse, adapt, or simply republish the resources they find.

Andrew Bejan (2008). Constructal Self-organization Of Research: Empire Building Versus The Individual Investigator. International Journal of Design & Nature and Ecodynamics, Vol3, Issue 3 - http://journals.witpress.com/pages...
“Empire building” is a phenomenon that dominates today’s research landscape. Large groups, national priorities and research centers dwarf the spontaneous individual investigators. Administrators and the thirst for higher rankings encourage this trend. Yet, the individuals do not disappear. This paper explains why. It attributes the emergence of the large group to the pursuit of greater visibility for the institution as a whole. ... The paper also shows that as the incentives for large-group research become stronger, smaller and smaller institutions find it beneficial to abandon the individual investigator mode and seek a balance between research empires and individual investigators. The individual researcher will not disappear.

Estudio Teddy Cruz is a forward thinking architecture firm, more concerned with building communities than simply building. Teddy Cruz's practice is rooted in the social and economic conditions of the trans-border territory between San Diego, California and Tijuana, Mexico. Artkrush editor Paul Laster recently spoke to Cruz about his social concerns and his projects currently on view from New York to Venice.

Boxes are one of the "atoms" or "primal forms" within the formal canon of the generative art community. As such, many artists have explored this territory, each with their own particular interpretation of the theme. This group is a place to explore the diversity of this shared subject.
