In March 1958, when I was living at the Beat Hotel, I proposed to Burroughs to at least make available to literature the means that painters have been using for fifty years. Cut words into pieces and scramble them. You’ll hear someone draw a bow-string.

Positioning Global Systems
This symposium explores the relationship between networks and locality in the built environment. New innovations in communication and information technologies form the basis of an expanding virtual geography. Yet the physical manifestations of our interfaces with these systems are often less considered. While contemporary architecture looks towards ways to model the global,our heightened perception of geographical specificity instead calls for new visions of local articulation. Popular mobile GPS applications, for example, allow us to directly interact with our environments through a play of social, and even cultural, databases. Through similar narratives of the local, this symposium seeks to reposition our broad and often vague definition of the global.
