Summary

Continuing the work initiated in Surface Tension: Problematics of Site, this second in the Supplement series engages questions of location and performative interventionist practices through essays and creative projects. Probing the intersection of art and architecture, Surface Tension No. 2 offers a critical glance at recent urban planning policies in China and a history of "participatory" architecture. It includes work by Proboscis, a London-based collective which plans geographical interventions that fuse creative uses of new technologies with often playful narratives, and a study of Nis Roemer's innovative Hot Summer urban farming project in Copenhagen. With essays digital culture in Brazil, electronic waste and camouflage as creative strategy, this volume offers fresh reading on the specifics of site.
