The Architectual Beast
Frac Centre, October 11, 2019
TWA's National Museum of World Writing on display in the collective installation “THE ARCHITECTURAL BEAST” curated by Hernan Diaz Alonso.
“Through artificial intelligence- the work featured will be exposed to a perpetual state of transformation and mutation. The exhibition gathers a key set of practices- primarily from architecture- but also from art and fashion, to reveal facets of the strange beast that the tumultuous paradigm shifts of recent decades have left behind.” -Hernan Diaz Alonso

Five Smart Cities Proposed for North America
Dezeen, October 28, 2019
Blockchains City appeared in Dezeen's article on North American smart cities.
From a smart forest in Mexico to a Nevada desert city powered by blockchain, a wave of smart cities are being proposed in North America.
Jeffrey Berns- who made a fortune selling cryptocurrency last year- has bought a large parcel of Nevada's desert with the aim of turning it into a smart city powered by blockchain technology.
The Innovation Park city is intended to be designed by Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney Architects and Tom Wiscombe Architecture and based on blockchain – a set of digital records that track transactions chronologically and publicly, but cannot be modified – to offer greater privacy and data control. For example, occupants of Innovation Park would be able to bank, vote and store data in the blockchain- without including middlemen or the government.
