Log 33 delivers emerging currents and renewed interests in architectural thought. It includes a thorough examination of object-oriented philosophy: two essays offering contrasting positions on its value for the architectural discipline as well as a conversation between philosopher Graham Harman and architects Todd Gannon, David Ruy, and Tom Wiscombe. Objects are invoked throughout the issue in myriad other ways--in essays on the postcritical legacy, architecture and objecthood, shape and character, history and machines--highlighting the currency and multivalence of the term object in the discourse today. Log 33, which follows two best-selling issues, also presents Wolfgang Schivelbusch s World Machines, the new preface to his recently republished book The Railway Journey (plus an introduction to his work by Sanford Kwinter) as well as critical commentary on architectural events from around the world, essays on urban noise and architectural acoustics, new explorations of the architect s hand in drawing, and more.

In the 15th anniversary issue of Log, number 44, architects representing diverse perspectives each question, in different ways, the place of architecture and architectural discourse in the world today. As 2018 Venice Biennale Golden Lion recipient Kenneth Frampton asks, What are architects for in a destitute time? Similarly, in Zack Saunders s response to the exhibition digitaldisobediences, François Roche wonders, for posthuman, postqueers, postdummies . . . what does it mean to be an architect? In this issue, Rafael Moneo searches for a new historical paradigm no longer centered on modernism; Jesse Reiser and Nanako Umemoto evaluate the forces that shape their architectural project; Pier Vittorio Aureli offers a comprehensive history of the way the grid has been used to organize the socioeconomics of cities; Michelle Chang proposes vagueness as a critical position and source of creativity; and Michael Meredith curates 44 low-resolution houses. George Baird and xx voto respond to Log 42: Disorienting Phenomenology and ANY 4: Architecture and the Feminine, respectively. Renee Kemp-Rotan and Ludovico Centis evaluate monuments to the complicated American histories of racial injustice and nuclear weapons development. Alicia Imperiale and Christophe Van Gerrewey explore works by Luigi Moretti and OMA. Log 44 also takes stock of the World Trade Center site 15 years after the competition to rebuild Ground Zero in an interview with Daniel Libeskind and an analysis by Fred Bernstein.

It has been one hundred years since the birth of Jørn Utzon (1918-2008), the visionary Dane who was only 38 years old when he won the competition to build the Sydney Opera House. 'AV' marks the occasion covering his legacy in a monograph featuring six canonical works along with six articles by international critics. Richard Weston ponders on the sources of inspiration in Utzon's creative process, Marja-Riitta Norri contributes a Nordic approach to the courtyard houses, Françoise Fromonot recalls the research carried out to write her monograph on the Sydney Opera House, the unbuilt projects are covered by Enrique Sobejano, Kenneth Frampton focuses on Bagsværd Church, and Rafael Moneo, who worked with Utzon in 1961, writes about the two Mallorca houses.
