I coined, being Historian of Architecture & Art, after my PhD-research in my study-fields, Experimental & Sustainable (City)Building, Philosophy of 'FUTOURISM 21'*[Czabanowski 2016]. Futourism 21 describes a way we live, (re)think and create; we don't life in a postmodern world anymore [Prof. Christopher Clark, historian]. Our social mentality demands behavioral changes towards a balanced local and global(sized) present: glocalism [Prof. Zygmunt Bauman, sociologist, glocally based]. Our common globalized society should develop and stimulate an integral sustainable mentality in 21st C. My Supervision FUTOURISM 21 is based on research & education as analyzed, multidisciplinary interactive review&vision: urgency Urgenda 21! A worldview in an Age of Mega Transitions, the Anthropocene [Crutzen 2006; 'Anthroposcene'* by Czabanowski 2016]. FUTOURISM 21 attends buildings as resilient sustainstable* bridges, linking Space-Time-(City)Building-(Eco)System as a vital regenerative process in our complex society of networks. A stimulation of integral sustainable lifestyle&worldview in a (St)Age* (Space-Time) of Transitions, analyzing & synthesizing a dynamic continuum of phases: the Impact of the Anthropo(s)cene*, like artists-architects-designers who create sustainable artifacts. 'The phenomenon Man' [Teilhard de Chardin 1955] related to cultural&natural environments enriches our lives: achieve- and enrichments like Unesco-heritage of Culture and ecological stewardship of Nature. A (st)aging state(ment) of the Art of Building: ecological and -cycling interlinking by re-thinking and re-acting theory-praxis [Skolimowski 1992]. Learning from our artistic and building ancestors, (re)storing DNA-genes and -stones to (re-/super)use in future! (Re)use and (re)build existing architecture/cities to develop sustainable, resilient communities as selfsupporting carriers and suppl(a)yers*. Futourism 21 is a co-existential phase of cooperative evolution; co-evolution of green human(s)ized urban mankind in systems of networks: ecologically minded and biotechnological humanism and urbanism restore the balance between quality/quantity to supply a sustainable lifestyle for 21st C Living. Everyone& -thing is still in progress of an evolving process of dynamic trans(pos)ition of holism & reductionism, creation& de(con)struction, turning and tipping points of 'glocal' transformation/-position to a new (world)order of Commons of conscious-sensitive (re)shaping, a synergetic symbiosis with others, (co)sharing our environment: Futourism 21; marked words with* are neologisms of Czabanowski
Being worldwide pioneer i'm deeply involved since Sept. 1990 in the History and Development of Sustainable Housing based on Human-Ecologically Minded Principles, known as governmental Sustainable Building. My MA-thesis 'Ecological Architecture in following steps, from Theory to Praxis' successful defended on 30-6-1992 Catholic Uni Nijmegen (KUN, now Radboud Uni Nijmegen (RUN). Afterwards i successfully defended my Ph.D.-thesis 'Human-Ecologically Minded Housing' published as TU/e-Bouwstenen 99 at University of Technology Eindhoven, 1st supervisor prof. Peter Schmid (TU/e) and 2nd supervisor prof.dr. Manfred Speidel (RWTH Aachen, Germany) and later supervisor prof.dr. W. Derkse, philosopher in sustainable development, chair-holder TU/e & RUN. As postdoc since 2008 i'm director of Office UrchiTecton, office specialized in lectures-workshops-excursions- guiding in musea and cities on field of History in Art-Architecture-Culture-Cityplanning. Next to these cultural events I'm postdoc researcher/educator in development and of several experimental 'Sustainable Settlements on Human-Ecological base' in Netherlands & Germany. These settlements i researched 20-25 years later to observe the results: what has happened with these eco-settlements? by filmdocu's by photos, archiving, interviews with inhabitants. Since 2019 i interviewed several former tutors/promotors with questionary on theory& praxis what they observe, looking back to their pioneer-work as experts study-field of 'Integral Sustainable Architecture'. My intention is to organize exhibitions of pioneers and their following students- PhD's in Architecture-City Planning-Sustainable Development with support of Associations i'm member of, like VIBA (Vereniging Integral Bio-logische Architectuur) since 1992, Harmonicale Ellips-group since 1995. Since 2016 i'm working at a supervision coined 'Futourism 21' to stimulate an integral sustainable society, a life(style) and human behavior of co-existence with Nature.
