Lecture Series
Every semester, the School of Architecture organizes a series of lecture, which is open to the public in order to broaden the design perspective. On 28 November 2002, the School had a good opportunity to hold a lecture at the Salle D' Expo, given by A. Sant Suwatcharapinun, a full-time professor at the Faculty of Architecture, Chiang Mai University, and Ph.D. candidate in Art and Architecture Theory at UCL in London. The lecture, entitled; "Between Space and Architecture", was a criticism on current architectural discourse concerning the relationships between social activities, and a new way of space communicated it's meaning to the viewers through the conception of 'familiarization'. The other was on the conceivable task of the architect, in comparison with that of the servant. The lecture then continued to argue that defining space in architecture. En ihe beginning, Prof. Sant started off by drawing relationships between the two issues. The first on how the such relationships had been under a dramatic change, in which the ideulugy of individualism came imo play. In effect. Ihe approach lo architectural creation has consequently shifted. Towards the end of this lecture, Prof. Sant concluded that the unprecedented interpretation in the social context, as coined 1 de-familiarization', would possibly open up more architectural outcomes in relevai.ee to the perception of place.
