Résumé
The Delos Symposia (1963-1975) were a groundbreaking series of events created by Constantinos A. Doxiadis, dedicated to rethinking and reshaping the built environment. The Symposia took place yearly aboard a ship in the Aegean Sea and concluded at the ancient island-city of Delos, where influential figures - including Buckminster Fuller, Margaret Mead, Arnold Toynbee, Barbara Ward and Doxiadis's key collaborator Jaqueline Tyrwhitt - would convene in the theater to address demographic, infrastructural and environmental issues.
This book explores the history and legacy of these meetings : their ideals, how they fed into Doxiadis's urban planning projects and their relevance for debates on ecology and design today.
