This month RUD will lead a brainstorming session on where and what the new chapter location might be.
After, we’ll begin an intermittent series entitled “RUD Reading Club” where together we will read an essay beforehand, and discuss it at the Forum. The first is “Why Does Athens Look So Quirky?” by Alex Sakalis, about the informal and dispersed networks of urban construction in post-war Greece.
The link to Alex’s article can be found here.
