Thesis Preparation Seminar (MIT)

Gregory Ulmer collaborated with Mark Goulthorpe on the seminar for students at MIT preparing to write the Master's Thesis in Architecture. Rodanthi Vardouli (TA for the seminar) participated in the collaboration, whose purpose was to explore the possibilities of heuretics as a resource for seminar pedagogy, and beyond that, for the design of an original thesis. The semester included three Skype lectures (links below).
