SUMMARY:Lecture: Tsz Yan Ng
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Title: Externalities\, of influence and effects \n\nNg
  will discuss recent works in material-based research in the area of Resea
 rch &amp\; Development for concrete and textile innovation. The projects h
 ighlight manufacturing processes and designs that leverage contemporary fa
 brication technology for architecture and related design disciplines. Intr
 insic to these works are issues of crafting\, of machine and human labor\,
  as well as socio-economic/cultural and environmental contingencies that c
 ontribute to their production. \n\n Tsz Yan Ng is an Assistant Professor
  at Taubman College\, University of Michigan. Her material-based research 
 and design primarily focus on experimental concrete forming (hard) and tex
 tile manipulation (soft)\, oftentimes in direct exchange and incorporati
 ng contemporary technologies to develop novel designs for building and man
 ufacturing. A common thread to her work investigates questions of labor in
  various facets and forms – underscoring broader issues of industrial ma
 nufacturing innovation\, of human labor\, crafting\, and aesthetics. She
 ’s the principal of an independent architecture and art practice with bu
 ilt works in the US and China. Her practice\, collaborative in nature and 
 interdisciplinary in scope\, ranges in scale from textile manufacturing fa
 cilities to commercial retail interiors and installations. Ng joined Taubm
 an College as the Walter B. Sanders Fellow (2007-08) and was also the Reyn
 er Banham Fellow at the University of Buffalo from 2001-2002. \n\nVisit T
 sz Yan Ng’s website here.\n\n \n\nSponsored by the 3D Design Departmen
 t at Cranbrook Academy of Art. All lectures are free and held in deSalle
  Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum. \n\n[caption id="attachment_21931"
