The bulletin has its own editorial board, columnists and writers; having a core group, the bulletin is open to all volunteer students enthusiastic to share and publish their ideas, provided that the writings are within the limits of the ethical consent. The language of the bulletin is English; as members of METU Department of Architecture we consider the international medium of the faculty and the university important. Moreover, we broadcast the publication on-line, and we care about the visibility of the bulletin outside the university. The group consists of students ranging from undergraduate to master and PhD levels, and we consider this heterogeneity as richness. We aim to utilize a semi-academic language for a more rapid and easy communication.
“Post’ure News is a student-based publication group, aiming to spread personalized words on issues related to architecture, city, arts and society”
The name of the bulletin is Post’ure News; post’ure as a term derived from post+architecture. It is post architecture, as we aim to communicate via and on architecture. It is post architecture; it is after architecture, having a critical distance from the built environment. It is posture, as we believe that our critical stance; our posture, should be our major identity. It is post’ure, as we aim to share everything related to our field of study. The design of the bulletin is also constructed to highlight the juxtaposition of the terms composing its title. “Post” is folded onto “architecture”, thus, unfolding becomes not only the means to read the bulletin and the full title, but also symbolizes the critical act of questioning.
