Brian McGrath
‘Simultopia: Inhabiting the Urban Forest of Symbols’
7pm, Room 322, UTS Building 6, 702 Harris St Ultimo
Brian McGrath is currently the Associate Professor of Urban Design for the School of Constructed Environments at Parsons The New School for Design, New York. He has published numerous books on theory and urban design. Most recently he published Digital Modeling for Urban Design (Wiley) in 2008. He is an Innovation Fellow in the School of Architecture at UTS, teaching in the Environmental Sustainability MArch studio.
Brian McGrath is also the Director of Urban-Interface, LLC. Urban-Interface links ecology and media to study the interrelationship between designed and emergent systems in cities. Urban-Interface engages with architects, multi-media artists and designers who work between conventional professional practices, in order to find affiliations among contesting actors -- business, government and community groups, as well as individual participants. Urban-Interface projects embrace a scale range from detail to city in order to engage the three ecologies: the human psyche, society, and the environment. Mr. McGrath’s focus is to develop material and immaterial urban interfaces which link human perception, emotional intelligence and urban design. Recent projects have included: the Celadon Urban Development and Waterfront Promenade, New Jersey, Monroe Center for the Arts, Living Memorial Project and interactive map and web site, and Manhattan Timeformations.
Copies of Digital Modeling for Urban Design will be available for sale at the lecture.
