Christine Williamson of Building Science Fight Club joins the podcast to talk about data versus wisdom, the culture of saying ‘no’ in architecture, Instagram as a platform for knowledge transfer and teaching, the reality of every building being a prototype, mentorship (or a lack-thereof) in the profession, the “Kardashianization” of social media and the user’s expectations of creators on those platforms, getting back to first principles thinking and teaching, the idea of ‘code minimum’ as an analogy of architectural education, building science for architects, and having better frameworks for learning the fundamentals of practicing architecture so one can go farther, faster.
