To coincide with

Ros Kavanagh spoke about the idea of capturing time in photography.

Ellen Rowley presented a paper entitled
King Kong Architecture, which looked at the history of large modernist buildings in Dublin. Owen Drumm discussed the fundamentals of acoustics as well as some basic techniques for improving the sound of a space.
François Chastanet spoke about Pixação, a form of graffiti specific to São Paulo, and specifically the way the letter-forms relate structurally to both the bodies of the writers and the fabric of the city.
There was also a screening of
The Big Bank, an industrial film which was commissioned by Sisks which documents the process of constructing
the Central Bank building.
