Summary:
Ce livre traite de politique et d'architecture - de leurs interactions, de leurs intersections. Une occupation civile. La politique de l'architecture israélienne est la somme de travaux d'architectes, d'universitaires et d'auteurs israéliens, qui permet d'examiner le rôle de l'architecture israélienne dans le conflit du Moyen-Orient. À travers des essais, des cartes et des photographies, Une occupation civile démontre comment l'architecture et l'urbanisme sont, en un siècle, passés du statut d'activités professionnelles banales à celui d'instruments tactiques et d'armes stratégiques. Depuis le début du XXe siècle, le projet déclaré du sionisme consistait à bâtir un foyer national pour le peuple juif sur la terre d'Israël. Depuis l'offensive d'implantation des années trente, fondée sur les villages de type Homa Oumigdal (mur et tour) en passant par la planification totale de l'État d'Israël peu après son indépendance, jusqu'à la colonisation des territoires occupés de 1967 à ce jour - l'architecture israélienne a été l'instrument concret de la réalisation du projet sioniste, exactement à l'image de son objectif utopique. La controverse politique et professionnelle qui a suivi l'interdiction de la première édition de cet ouvrage par son éditeur originel, l'Association israélienne des architectes unis, est la preuve flagrante que l'architecture n'est absolument pas une activité innocente. Puisque Israël peut être considéré comme l'un des laboratoires les plus radicaux de notre époque, les questions que pose ce livre doivent être étudiées dans un contexte bien plus large: la politique de l'architecture israélienne n'est finalement pas différente de la politique de toute architecture.

Summary:
"Civilization or the militarization of science?" With this typically hyperbolic and provocative question as a starting point, Paul Virilio explores the dominion of techno-science, cyberwar and the new information technologies over our lives . . . and deaths. After the era of the atomic bomb, Virilio posits an era of genetic and information bombs which replace the apocalyptic bang of nuclear death with the whimper of a subliminally reinforced eugenics. We are entering the age of euthanasia. These exhilarating bulletins from the information war extend the range of Virilio's work. "The Information Bomb" spans everything from Fukuyama to Larry Flynt, the Sensation exhibition of New British Art to space travel, all seen through the optic of Virilio's trenchant and committed theoretical position.

Summary:
This publication sheds light on the reflections that led to the creation of EXIT, the 360° video installation created for the exhibition spaces of the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain in Paris. Based on an idea by French philosopher and urbanist, Paul Virilio, the 360° video installation EXIT was created in 2008 by the New York-based studio of artists and architects Diller Scofidio + Renfro for the exhibition spaces of the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain in Paris. Composed of a series of animated maps generated by data, this immersive installation investigates human migrations today and their leading causes, including the impact of climate change. Through six scenarios - Population Shifts: Cities; Remittances: Sending Money Home; Political Refugees and Forced Migration; Rising Seas, Sinking Cities; Natural Disasters; and Speechless and Deforestation - it provides the rare opportunity to understand visually the complex relationships between the various economic, political and environmental factors underpinning contemporary human migrations. The work was updated entirely in 2015, reflecting the alarming evolution of the data since it was first presented in 2008. Through various texts, descriptions of the animated maps, and numerous illustrations, this book sheds light on the reflections that led to the creation of EXIT, and proposes to delve deeper into the very notions and questions that it raises and that are more relevant today than ever.

It was a time, he writes, that reflected the "cruelty of an epoch, the hills and dales of daily life, the usual clumps of habits and commonplaces."

It was a time, he writes, that reflected the "cruelty of an epoch, the hills and dales of daily life, the usual clumps of habits and commonplaces." Urban disorientation, the machines of war, and the acceleration of events in contemporary life are Virilio's ongoing concerns. He explores them in events ranging from media coverage of the Gulf War to urban rioting and lawlessness. Some will see Virilio as a pessimist discouraged by "the acceleration of the reality of time," while others will find his recording of "atypical events" to be clairvoyant.

Summary:
Published to accompany an exhibition he has conceived for the Fondation Cartier in Paris, this book examines the philosophical issues raised by our confrontation with accidents and their impact on our world. Accidents capture our attention, surprise or shock us, disrupt or ultimately alter the course of our existence. Whether significant or insignificant, benign or disastrous, accidents always reveal something about ourselves and the systems we construct. For Virilio, to invent the ship is to invent the shipwreck, to invent electricity is to invent electrocution. Accidents are consequently, in his view, inherent in all technological systems. This catalogue features over 200 illustrations, including press photographs, paintings, and engravings representing natural and industrial accidents from the past three centuries. It also contains reproductions of the works of the many artists included in the exhibit, most notably Lebbeus Woods, Nancy Rubins, Stephen Vitiello, Cai Guo Qiang, Bruce Conner, Tony Oursler, Jonas Mekas, and Jem Cohen.

Monde fini, fin de la géographie... mais comment donc reconfigurer l’espace pour calmer les flux ? La passion contemporaine pour l’édification de murs témoigne de cette ambivalence jouant simultanément sur la fermeture et l’ouverture, entre un pouvoir de plus en plus virtuel et de grossières barrières physiques, barricades ou corridors. À l’heure du « village planétaire », pensez donc ! Mais le village n’a-t-il pas toujours été dominé par l’isolement et la surveillance ?
