Revisited: Local Code at BAMPFA with Nicholas de Monchaux

On April 6th, 2017, Nicholas de Monchaux presented his latest book, “Local Code: 3659 Proposals about Data, Design, and the Nature of Cities,” at BAMPFA. Nicholas directed the audience through the genesis of the book, and how he chose to design for a distributed resilience — requiring the development of new analytical tools to generate proposals. He then explained to the audience the intellectual journey of the book, which explores the influence of key architects and urban planners on the design process of these spaces.
