The Chicago Expander at Archeworks is a research initiative that brings together thinkers, designers and practitioners to construct new discourses on regionalism and develop new models addressing large- and small-scale urban design. Co-directed by Iker Gil and Antonio Petrov, the Chicago Expander workshops examine our region's micro-geographies, boundaries, networks and systems through the lenses of energy, food, economy, water and transportation. Food Workshop This Chicago Expander workshop will explore our region’s food systems by drawing on geography as a research and design paradigm. How does food surpass typical boundaries of jurisdiction and governance, and impact larger geographies? With food and the infrastructure that is required to produce, distribute and store it central to our investigation; we will examine the politics behind local, national and global food interests and the implications on region formation processes in Chicago. Individuals with diverse disciplinary backgrounds are welcome to apply.
