Padua/Padova June 2014

Padua/Padova June 2014

I spent a couple of days in Padua between sessions of the Visualizing Venice workshops back in June, giving talks with the ever-inspiring Caroline Bruzelius on “The lives of places and cities: New models of representation and their conceptual implications for the past and present.” Saw fantastic colleagues and met students in the crossover architectural history/engineering courses being taught there. Also gave my decidedly limited Italian a workout trying to follow student presentations!

Perhaps even more excitingly, I got to see the ancient “Goethe” tree at the Padova Botanical Gardens. Amazing!!
