Catching up (post-viral and sister-visiting-from-Mongolia break) on the Infrastructural City<\/span>, with two posts regarding “Distribution”<\/a>: Brett Milligan contributes “The X-Ray of Retail”<\/a>, which discusses the internal landscape of big-box stores as a microcosm of regional distribution, while Nam Henderson discusses<\/a> both Lane Barden’s photo-essay “The Street” (on Wilshire Boulevard) and “Distribution”.<\/p>\n

Nam also recently posted<\/a> on two of the earlier chapters, “Cell Structure” and “Count(ing) on Change”; while reading his post, you might pay particular note to the video Nam dug up<\/a> of a panel discussion from Michigan’s “Future of Urbanism Conference” this past March.\u00a0 The discussion, on “urban and regional ecologies”, features panelists Alan Berger, Chris Reed, Edward Soja, and Kazys Varnelis; while I haven’t had a chance to watch it in full yet, my suspicion, given the panelists, is that it’d be worth the half-hour to do so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
