#13 DO IT YOURSELF. CREATING PUBLIC URBAN SPACE
The role of the architect in society
Why the talk is inspiring?
“Indiana Jones plays no role in the outcome in “Raiders of Lost Ark” If he weren’t in the film, it would turn out exactly the same… If he weren’t in the movie, the Nazis would still have found the Arks, taken it to the island, opened it up, and all died, just like they did.”
The talks are held every Thursday, 8.00 p.m. at the National Art Gallery (NDG), Konstitucijos av. 22,Vilnius.
Entrance is free of charge.
The events are recorded and the videos are placed online at www.archfondas.lt.

RECOMMENDS TO READ
Emergence
Steven Johnson
Why the book is worth reading?
Emergence is a tour of what are called adaptive self-organising systems: systems that are made up of many interacting agents who are individually not terribly smart, but who collectively come up with intelligent higher-level behaviour.
