The 1970s is
More of pendium than pilation, this issue revisits and draws new meaning from the work that was Here and Now
published monthly in 2 during the early 1970s.
The 1970s were marked by a seismic change that occurred in the representation of ideas in architecture.
The magazine bears out the optimistic, experimental, environmentally conscious and ultimately pluralist
culture that prevailed throughout the 1960s and carries it through until the emergence of a post-modern
discourse in the mid 1970s. The propositions described by young architects, engineers, scientists, artists and
environmental campaigners at that time were fuelled by both a social and cultural need to speculate on the
availability and exchange of information. They dreamt of inclusive munities, structures and systems
that would embrace the promise of imagined new technologies. This was the era that preceeded the personal
computer, World Wide Web, mobile telephone and work. This issue attempts to demonstrate that,
in spite of our very recent technological trappings, they are useless without good ideas.
Equipped with both a generation and information gap of thirty years, the following contributors (amongst
many others) present a Cosmorama of now: Marie-Ange Brayer, Nic Clear, David Cunningham, Liza Fior, John
Frazer, John Goodburn, James Madge, Will McLean, Christopher Moller, Robert Webb and The Word Dept.
