create Calagator::Event 1250458037 Lawrence and Anna Halprin and the Reinvention of Public Space Roll back

description nil → Join the Halprin Landscape Conservancy for the release of a book celebrating the world-renowned Portland fountain plazas designed by Lawrence Halprin. Saturday, December 5, 2pm Ziba World Headquarters Auditorium, 1044 NW Ninth Avenue Admission: Free Introduction by Portland Parks Commissioner Nick Fish Lecture performance by Ron Blessinger, violinist, Third Angle Ensemble, with dancer/choreographers Linda K. Johnson, Tere Mathern, Cydney Wilkes, and Linda Austin Screening of The City Dance of Lawrence and Anna Halprin - A documentary about the September 2008 performance in Halprin's Portland plazas Between 1963 and 1970, Lawrence Halprin and Associates realized the Portland Open Space Sequence: a quartet of public plazas in Portland, Oregon, that redefined the city and set a bold new precedent for urban landscape architecture. Comprised of Lovejoy Fountain, Pettygrove Park, and Ira Keller Fountain), plus the lesser-known Source Fountain, the plazas are a collage of striking concrete forms, gushing water, and alpine flora that, in their seamless mix of nature and theater, created a playful metaphorical watershed coursing through the central city. Where the Revolution Began (Spacemaker Press, $29.95) is the story of how these plazas came to be. Born of the creative experimentation and collaboration between the late Halprin and his wife, pioneering choreographer/dancer Anna Halprin, the Portland Open Space Sequence came to life in the unlikely setting of the Portland’s first scrape-and-rebuild urban renewal project. But Halprin defied the conventions of both American urban renewal and midcentury modernism, designing the kind of inviting, exuberant public space not seen since Renaissance Rome’s Trevi Fountain and Piazza Navona. The book is an outgrowth of “The City Dance of Lawrence and Anna Halprin,” a performance that took place in the plazas in September 2008 as part of PICA’s annual TBA Festival. The book’s release, the performance, and screening is a celebration of Halprin, who passed away October 25 at age 94. For Lawrence Halprin, one of the 20th century’s most influential landscape architects, the Portland plazas were the first step in a career-long exploration of sequential works of landscape design, from the Haas Promenade in Jerusalem to the Roosevelt Memorial in Washington, D.C. For Portland, Halprin’s work marked the beginning of a tradition of remaking the city around interactive public spaces, such as the famed Pioneer Courthouse Square. And for landscape architecture, the plazas laid the earliest foundations for the ecologically and socially responsive urbanism on the rise today. Replete with historic photographs and Halprin’s notebook drawings, Where the Revolution Began is a historically complete document of how this pivotal moment in urban landscape history came to be, from concept to fruition. All proceeds from sales benefit the Halprin Landscape Conservancy, a nonprofit organization devoted to educating the public and preserving the Portland Open Space Sequence.

All programming languages welcome. Come work on your own projects, work on others participants' projects, get advice, have fun, etc. You're encouraged to bring a computer, but can team up with others that brought one too. Afterwards, the group descends on the 12th and Hawthorne foodcart pod for additional nourishment.

description nil → Hi folks, At Monty's suggestion, we agreed to start having every-other-week meetings, starting Monday November 16 at 7pm, at Techshop in Beaverton, in their meeting room. This coming Monday is the second such meeting. What is the purpose of this meeting? Good question! I think it is to get together to work on projects while offering help and getting help from others. I won't be teaching classes or giving a lecture, though if others want to, feel free. There is no agenda. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A TECHSHOP MEMBER TO ATTEND THESE MEETINGS, though you do need to be a member to use their equipment -- except for the following caveat. Monty, correct me if I'm wrong, but, I believe you said that the Open Tech Space corner at TechShop IS available to non-TechShop members, which is awesome. This gives you access to test equipment, soldering stations, and work benches. Do you have any other input on this, Monty? We'll probably stay until 8pm, perhaps longer if enough people show up and there is staff on hand. See: http://www.portlandtechshop.com/ for details about TechShop, including a map. And: http://opentechspace.org/about/ for details about Open Tech Space. The address is: 10100 SW Allen Blvd., Beaverton, OR 97005 (503) 643-SHOP -Pete

Find effective ways to communicate to each audience. • Be pragmatic when choosing what requirements to write and how much effort to put into describing the current system. • Leverage tool adoption to make changes that are more general to the software development process. <b>Author Bio:</b> Bill Baker is a software development manager at Sage in Beaverton Oregon.

We will discuss the obstacles met along the way, including juggling master and slave database connections, writing uploaded files to S3, and distributing static assets using the CloudFront CDN. Additionally, integration with the Symfony configuration and environments system will be demonstrated, allowing one application to be developed locally and seamlessly deployed to the cloud.
