Coffee Sketch PodcastAuthor: Kurt Neiswender / Jamie Crawley
Coffee Sketch Podcast is our take on the intersection of old tech and new tech. The space between the traditional practice of the hand-drawn sketch that has been performed by architects and designers for centuries and the modern day use of the #hashtag as a representation of sentiment or a movement! Each week will plan to deliver a new pod about our ideas, sketches, and whats going in our daily lives as we pursue our love of architecture, design, and sharing this knowledge with the next generation.

151 - Space Architecture and the Protopian Future
Episode 151
Sunday, 21 April, 2024
Architecture and the Protopian FutureIn this episode of the podcast, the hosts, Jamie and Kurt, engage in a wide-ranging discussion that kicks off with humorous banter about the challenges of referencing older movies like 'The Matrix' with students born after their release. The conversation then shifts to a somber note with mentions of 9/11 and transitions into insights from an acoustics in architecture class, highlighting a guest lecturer's work on a sound sculpture for the Pennsylvania Memorial. The hosts muse on the passage of time and the challenge of teaching historical events that occurred before their students were born. They also celebrate a friend's birthday, discuss their experiences with coffee from Rootless, and share personal anecdotes about food, cooking, and restaurants they've enjoyed. Additionally, they delve into science fiction, reflecting on 'The Three-Body Problem' TV show, and discuss the concept of 'Protopian' futures between utopian and dystopian visions. Jamie shares his passion for space architecture through a detailed description of his sketch, inspired by the Stanford Torus concept, exploring themes of human ingenuity, exploration, and the tangible process of creation. The episode emphasizes the importance of storytelling in envisioning optimistic futures and the role of design in imagining the realms of possibility.00:00 Opening Banter and Matrix Nostalgia00:41 Teaching Moments and Historical References04:20 Coffee Talk and Birthday Wishes10:54 Exploring Culinary Adventures18:36 Sketching Space and Protopian Visions Support the showBuy some Coffee!
