Description: "Journeys explores architectural issues raised by increased global mobility. Stories by different authors, presented in a fictional framework, highlight key concepts critical to understanding the impact of the movement of people, animals, objects and ideas. The vagabondage of seeds. The transfer of knowledge and experience as people move from one place to another. The physical reconfiguration of communities. These are among the wide range of topics Journeys explores as it seeks to analyze and visually depict how these flows, encounters and migrations unexpectedly change society and our built environment"--Page 4 of cover.
Notes: Published on the occasion of an exhibition held at the Canadian Centre for Architecture, Montréal, Québec, Oct. 19, 2010-Mar. 13, 2011.
