description: We inhabit a society living at the speed of light, projected into the future. Information is accessible anywhere, regardless of space--knowledge, and, by extension, reality, has become free-floating. In the midst of all this, is it really possible for individual artists to successfully intervene and create change in the world? "Expo On-Line" answers this question with a resounding yes, suggesting that in the field of architecture and design there exists a collective mission to improve contemporary life, as well as justified hope for building and rebuilding our foundations as a world-culture. Extensively documenting the work of "Expo On-Line's" 74 participants, this publication also features a CD-ROM containing interviews with 40 architects including Greg Lynn, Zaha Hadid, MVRDV, Odile Decq, Dominique Perrault, Kas Osterhuis, Jean Nouvel, Massimiliano Fuksas, Arata Isozaki, among numerous others. The result is a book and accompanying CD-ROM that represent the best of the newest developments in architecture and design, reflecting the demands of the digital era. Interviews with Greg Lynn, Zaha Hadid, Odile Decq, Dominique perrault, Kas Oosterhuis, Jean Nouvel, Massimiliano Fuksas, and Arata Isozaki, MVRDV, and others.Paperback, 416 pages, 4.75 x 6.25 inches, 380 color illustrations.
