SEANEWSLETTER

a bi-annual chronicle of the School of Environment and Architecture, Mumbai. ISSUE 7. Winter Semester 2019

EDITORIAL CONTENTS

Over five years of pedagogical discourses, new methods and experiments, the people of SEA have expanded the ideas of teaching, learning and working to become more intuitive. Students become autodidacts and bring new platforms to engage with new provocations. This year also marks the first batch to graduate from SEA with new dissertations entering the field. SEA has expanded its teaching to new colleges in Southern India to create a connected collaborative studio that works simultaneously on ontological questions of form and space. Through an exchange program between four colleges, different cultures, knowledge systems, experiences and information were shared among all the colleges.

This is the first issue to be edited and compiled by a student and I take pride in being its editor. I was also part of the connected studio, visiting Tiruchirapalli and Kozhikode, to engage with different people and contexts. The collaboration brought out new methods of thinking, representation and crafting space in the students. The issue also highlights some of the new studies of settlements, relevant conversations of the contemporary, new modes of showcasing form and space, different methods of building technologies and also studies of culture and built form throughout history
