Toward the Sentient, curated by Mark Shepard and organized by the Architectural League, is a major exhibition of five newly commissioned projects and
installations by teams of architects, artists and technologists that
imagine alternative trajectories for how various mobile, embedded,
networked, and distributed forms of communication systems might inform
the architecture of urban space and/or influence our behavior within it.Toward the Sentient City is made possible with support from
the J. Clawson Mills Fund of the Architectural League and the Graham
Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts. Additional support
has been provided by the University at Buffalo. Toward the Sentient City is
also supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department
of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council.
