EVERYTHING, EVERYWHERE, ALL AT ONCE AUTOMATION, CIRCULARITY, AND REPROGRAMMING IN CEDRIC PRICE'S ARCHITECTURAL IMAGINATION

Cedric Price was a fervent critic of a techno-optimism that relied blindly on technology as the answer to any problem. Luciano Brina delves deeper into the figure of Price and his provocative understanding of technology. Analyzing his visual production for the Potteries Thinkbelt 0966) and Fun Palace 0960 projects, Brina evinces a connection between Price's representational techniques, his social and political agendas, and how they anticipated contemporary calls for change: from remediation practices and environmental narratives to alternative urban processes.
