Call for Abstracts: 2026 Modern Conversation Conference on Time

Join the next “modern conversation”: we examine the relationship between time, modernity, and architecture, searching for traces of time. We aim to reflect on the connection between the built environment and the regulation of time, whether through obvious examples like clock towers or less obvious ones such as religious and industrial buildings. What is the relationship between the regulation of time and modernity? How has the introduction of certain structures and typologies shifted our understanding of time and the way we quantify it? What constitutes architecture that is strongly connected to time, and what is truly timeless? What ruptures occur that challenge such architecture?
