And my favorite architecture themed podcast! Well, “built environment” themed podcast actually, because they don't just talk about architecture. In fact, you would think that they would spend more time talking about architecture. But they don't. They talk about other stuff.

Daniela's introduction to anarcho-capitalism, libertarianism, and Liberland by Patrik Schumacher (Principal of Zaha Hadid Architects) Liberland Design Competition 2020 What is Liberland? Micronation, established in 2015 by its current president, Vit Jedlicka. Based on the principles of liberty and anarcho- capitalism, powered by a decentralized peer-to-peer computational network (blockchain) Liberland is situated on a territory between Serbia and Croatia, previously a Terra Nillius (no man’s land) which has not been claimed by either country prior to the establishment of Liberland. Liberland encompasses only 7 square kilometers of land along the Danube River, which periodically floods. Geography and history of how Liberland was made possible Goals of the competition Envision how maximum design freedom can result in a complex legible order Ecological sensitivity is of upmost importance A lucid development process for a multi-stage evolution towards a fully functional, architecturally sophisticated, and intelligently adaptive city. Design Parameters Can Liberland’s radical new possibilities for liberty, an unleashed free market economy, and a transparent distributed peer-to-peer computational network (blockchain) stimulate a radical transformation of the built environment? How can maximum design freedom result in a complex legible order? The vitality of a fertile network society is dependent on the presence of three stabilizing factors: the radical autonomy of its constituent agents (liberty), a commitment to unregulated affiliation (free markets), and a transparent distributed peer-to-peer network (blockchain). Patrik Schumacher's Prospective Urban Planning Regimes Sponsored Order: Anticipated Curated Rule-based Self-governed Order Spontaneous Order (Wild Zones) Liberland as a building site Density - Maximum 120,000 residents / 7 square kilometers Earthquake risk A global network of distributed intelligences, and e-residency program Virtual marketplace for architecture Napredak development Napredak is an approximately 5-hectare zone within Apatin, situated approximately 10km south of Liberland along the Danube River where Liberland docks its boats Bitcoin Freedom boat Floating Man festival Design for near-future development Napredak's strategic location Judges ARCHITECT, THEORIST AND EDUCATOR Patrik Schumacher ARCHITECT AND THEORIST Vedran Mimica ARCHITECT Raya Ani, FAIA ARCHITECT Bruno Juricic BLOCKCHAIN EXPERT Jillian Godsil LIBERTARIAN POLICY RESEARCHER Vera Kichanova PHILOSOPHER Garet Crossman ARCHITECT Jan Petrs ARCHITECT Shady Albert Michael Prizes Negotiate a contract with Liberland to further develop a portion of their competition design scheme Liberland "Merits" cryptocurrency towards citizenship Schedule May 16, 2020 - Competition Launch August 16, 2020 - Registration & Questions Deadline October 16, 2020 - Design Submission Deadline November 2020 - Winners Announced Registration Fees Professionals $60, Students with current ID $30.

John Ellis is a student in the School of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. He is also, arguably more auspiciously, a long-time Anarchitecture Podcast listener. Tim has been working with John over the past few months as an advisor for his thesis project. John was recently given an assignment to record a podcast for one of his classes, and interviewed Tim in a wide-ranging discussion which John's class will be forced to listen to.

This is also a good "101" level introduction to the Anarchitecture podcast. Tim gives a summary of some topics we have covered to date for any new listeners. Discussion John showed our website to his class. Scorn ensued. Tim's path to architecture Creative multidimensional problem solving Specialty in healthcare Travelling and settling in Maine Adra Architecture Tim's path to libertarianism Gardner Goldsmith radio show Never satisfied with status quo thinking The other Anarchitecture - Gordon Matta Clark Large scale art installations Historical injustices in the built environment Disagreement on economics with left-anarchists Give people a convincing picture of what a better society could look like UM, WHO WILL BUILD THE ROADS???!!! Our unorthodox view - preserve access rights, disallow eviction many possible ways to divest and #DESTATALIZE James Howard Kunstler and Chuck Marohn - unsustainability of tax funded roads The Non-Aggression Principle The practical application of these ideas can produce better results Built environment issues are often non-partisan Tim predicted the 2008 crash Zoning has caused growth to flatten and sprawl Cities have expanded infrastructure and service areas with decreasing population density A libertarian approach Eliminate zoning, allow dense, mixed use development everywhere Infrastructure should be paid for by users, not taxpayers Short-term politicians have short-term incentives Big Box store development Hidden subsidies Low value per acre Subsidized auto infrastructure vs. walkable cities Traditional development patterns are still possible It's not nostalgia Finished suburbs lack adaptability John's Thesis Project Parking spots as spatial units Temporary buildings don't pay property taxes Sidewalk Entrepreneurship Bucket o' shrimp Utilize public space for incremental businesses Violent arrest of the empanada lady Soul food entrepreneurs vs. the man Rolling approval schedule - reduce/defer startup costs Every town has a forgotten space Food trucks ADA - federal standards, risk of lawsuits Beercycles - astronomical value per acre The unique role of Architects in libertarianism The Anarchitecture dual mandate Attending planning meetings - the first step towards becoming a hardcore Rothbardian anarcho-capitalist A small town stroad diet Market approaches to parking Small bets - plant street trees, fix sidewalks Divesting infrastructure from government ownership Sewage treatment vs. teachers Private road ownership Infrastructure loses out under government control Mass exodus of teachers Confessions of an Architectural Hitman The federal funding band-aid There are no feedback mechanisms in monopolies Free infrastructure crowds out sustainable infrastructure Is a pragmatic approach reasonable? Small bets in the built environment Small bets in libertarianism Free State Project - building community Destatalize government assets Knee-jerk expectation that government will solve problems The libertarian mindset - government as last resort, not first response Links/Resources John's schools: Ball State's College of Architecture University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee Cedric Price Wikipedia MoMA Oh, THAT "Anarchitecture" - Gordon Matta Clark Wikipedia MoMA James Howard Kunstler Strong Towns How much do state and local governments spend on highways and roads?

We are mere days post Porcfest and frankly there’s nothing we would rather analyse this week. What was our Porcfest experience? Did we enjoy spending so much time with so many other liberty type people? Would we do it again? Not really a spoiler but Porcfest was all about the people. In the interest of music discovery we have a brand new track featuring our favorite Vermont rapper and former guest Mr.Tyler Colford. It’s called Game Over by JynxINC x Stir Crazy (Ft. RyCoon and Ciurleo).

Tim and Joe review Anarchitecture’s interview with Patrik Schumacher, Director of Zaha Hadid Architects (Episode #ana011), to clarify and highlight key points. We elaborate on topics including historical architectural styles, computer-generated design, parametric urbanism, and the challenges of promoting radical ideas.

However, one needs to be aware of how one says it, how one mediates it, and how one explains that what we’re talking about is precisely aiming for the same fundamental hopes and ideals of a free and prosperous, emancipated and pleasant human condition." Discussion Historical styles of architecture Alberti’s architectural theory as the start of the discourse of architecture Fordism, modernism, and progressivism Post-Fordist network society Post-modernism Deconstructivism Parametricism – complexity and order Frank Gehry and Guggenheim Museum Bilbao Computer-generated design and input parameters Parametric curves – multiple Y values for a given X value Too many parameters can over-calibrate predictive models, but could be an advantage in architectural design. Fractal design Parametric Urbanism Garbage spill urbanism Urban harmony through Parametricism Perceiving more complex types of order I guess you’re not ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it. Van Halen requires preconditioning. Path-dependence The challenges of promoting parametricism and libertarianism / anarcho-capitalism A messiah event Long-term one on one conversations Shock value Crisis as catalyst Market-based solutions are necessary, and may be sufficient Transitioning to a stateless society requires three things:1. Convince people that the initiation of force is wrong2. Convince people that governments initiate force3.

The hosts of the Anarchitecture podcast join me to discuss the differences between libertarian and conventional statist solutions to everything from roads to city planning and garbage collection.

To coincide with the launch of his ambitious new project – “All The Black People in Citizen Kane” – artist Craig Damrauer joins the pod to reflect on his life journey and the lessons he has learned: from growing up in Denver as the son of scientists to becoming a baker, a kitchen manager, a food scientist, an adman and eventually focusing on his artistic passions. One of the most important, innovative, brave, honest, genuine and humble artists working in America today, he graduated with an MFA from the University of Arizona and has had his work shown at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, MCA Denver, the Masur Museum, Los Angeles Contemporary Editions, Pulse Art Fair, and Paul Smith's GLOBE Gallery. Craig is also a writer and has had a number of books published including the magnificent New Math. He has contributed to The New York Times, The Atlantic, GOOD and Medium. ABOUT “All the Black People in Citizen Kane” In the 20th Century's most iconic movie, there are 23 black actors. Two have speaking roles (‘Yes, sir' and ‘Come right in, Mr. Kane'), there are two bands, three loiterers, one wheelchair pusher, three servants and one driver. The actors were un-credited and occupy 2.9 minutes of screen time. Taking inspiration from James Baldwin, the piece consists of 171,744 frames, each hand-erased with the exception of the black actors' appearances onscreen. Almost 4 years in production, it is an attempt, by erasing, to make clear that which is nearly invisible. The work can be seen at the New Orleans Contemporary Arts Center from August 6th – October 1st as part of the exhibition, “A Building With A View”: Experiments in Anarchitecture.
