Categories:
Our guest in this episode is Sam Spurr who at the time of the recording was the associate professor and head of discipline of the Masters of Architecture at the University of Newcastle. Sam also has a special research focus on mining ideology and coal capitalism, which examines the agency of architecture to make legible the complex forces at play in the Anthropocene Epoch. Sam shares how she developed her specific area of research, the traditional elements of architecture education and how it’s developing, and how architects might contribute to our changing societies. This interview was conducted by Sally Hsu who is an EmAGN committee member based in New South Wales.
