Plan Común has been invited to participate in ‘My Invisible Friend’ series of lectures held at Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA). Curated by Lev Bratishenko, ‘My Invisible Friend’ invites authors to present projects made with non-architects and to reveal the invisible friends without whom their work would be impossible. Each speaker completes three tasks:
1: Tell the story of a decisive encounter with a figure from outside architecture and of how it created a new kind of practice.
2: Pick any dead or fictional non-architect to collaborate with, and explain why.
3: Pick another contemporary architect and a collaborator to inflict upon them, and explain why.
