Hello people
I uploaded the current map of cities in Europe you can fly between for a maximum of 50Euros. I visited a hole lot of websites for cheep planetickets, but in case I missed a really important one, please tell me. It would be nice to know more webpages to be placed on cities where most of their planes depart from.
Hope you will find it useful.

here is the link

Happy hollidays or whatever is going on in your country.

109 Provisional Attempts to Address Six Simple and Hard Questions About What Architects Do Today and Where Their Profession Might Go Tomorrow

On the occasion of the farewell to Wiel Arets and the welcoming of Alejandro Zaera-Polo as dean, Berlage Institute organized an international symposium and this special edition of Hunch 6/7 on the question: “What will the architect enact tomorrow?” More than 100 international architects, theoreticians and critics were challenged to address this question. […]
In the introductory article Roemer van Toorn analyzes the positions contemporary architecture is taking, the issues it deals with or denies, and the positions it could take in the future.

Dunk’s invitation to us was to ask and answer those questions for ourelf … and maybe share them here on the blog? ;-)

Hi everyone!
I’m a newcommer on this site and I’m very interested in a participation on easa005. There are many reaasons of my interest, but the main is because it’s a unknown kind of communication between students in our country and especially in my city. But there is a problem with contacting russian nc. I’ve emailed them, but there were no answers. Can anybody tell me where are they?

big thanks,
hope to see you:)

Dear NCs
As some of you might have seen on the blog, I was sending out a call for essays. We would like very much to include your contributions before and during easa. In a way I think I might already start to get on your nerves – but it’s necessary :-) so if you have anything to tell us: send it to “essays (at) easa005.ch”. The mailbox shouldn’t stay empty, otherwise i’m afraid we’ll have to put off our nice event until i find something there :-D

The following letter by Ben who is taking care of the theme together with Cordula (tutorpack authors…) aims at the same direction. It’s about how we can get you started there on EASA. To really make you bring something, we give you an idea for the competition you might have to organise to select your participants. So he writes:

Dear NCs

To have a good basis for both the discussions and the publication, we would like each country to prepare a contribution before EASA starts. It should, in a short and concentrated way (lecture of max. 15 min), deal with a certain aspect of transit/transition in the according country and thus give an impression of the current condition in that country. These contributions, put as little intermezzos inbetween different lectures or evenly distributed throughout the two weeks, will trigger discussions and direct them into a more constructive direction. In written form, they will add very much to the international impact of the EASA publication.

All Forms of presentation are thinkable, of course. It does not have to be the classic front-beamer-presentation (but can also be a discussion or a theatre-play). Whatever seems most suitable according to the theme can be done during the 15 minutes.

This contribution could also be used for selecting participants, especially in countries with too many applicants.

Please send us a short thematic description of your country’s contribution one month before EASA starts, so we can place them into the final program.

Yours
Ben

Or isn’t it interesting to present the transitional situation of your country from your own point of view between Winy Maas and Kees Christiaanse???

If you wonder where to find enough participants, we have the answer ready. There will be a poster available on the website from tomorrow morning, printable on A3, to hang it as an announcement all over your country in all the architecture faculties :-)

In general, I will update the website until tomorrow, some parts get a bit more clear and focused, and new parts (even in a new color) are available. It’s mostly about practical stuff, but as we have a few first applications from Georgia already, maybe we should hurry up a bit… So you’ll find everything about payment details and how your millionaire uncle and cultural institutions of your countries can help us with their money.

So check out the website and get ready for a hot summer! I can only repeat myself: I’m looking so much forward to having you all here soon!!!

Dear All,

Following the success of response for 50€ flights within europe, perhaps we can post websites giving access to free maps / satellite images..

eg. www.multimap.com – very popular

www.kortal.dk – for Denamrk

*Adam I’m having trouble navigating they’ve changed the interface !? is there still free access?

hi everybody!
this time it’s harder than usual to post a message so i’m gonna keep it short.
i’m announcing a new austrian nc, to substitute me as nc. tho i’m sad about telling this i’m also glad she’s doing it that motivated and i’m sure she’s gonna do a great job (though she never attended easa before).

but i’m not gonna make it that easy, so will stick around and cu all in bergün, i’ll keep on maintaining the website for now and be open for any requests.

from now on handing over my nc-duties to her:

i want to repeat the call for essays, to make sure it doesn’t get lost as the storey has already disappeared among the older ones…

if you feel like writing an essay on an aspect of “trans – transit – transition” that is important to you, contact theme (at) easa005.ch for further questions. as stated last week, we’d like to send out 3-4 bulletins with texts from in- and outside easa, further information about the location and much more…

we’d be too happy to get your contributions. dear nc’s, please spread it around! thank you very much!!!

Hello my bewinged friends
Im doing a map over Europe and the surrounding countries that you can fly to for 50E and less incl. taxes. If you know any cities you can fly between and perhaps the webpage you can book the ticket I would love to know.
Please just write down the cities and the webpage.
Thank you ever so much for you time.
—looking forward to Schwitzerland—

psst Sigurd
