The weather’s warmer in Ann Arbor and the flowers are showing out. I have a whole new understanding of ancient fertility rituals and mythologies around Springtime now.

Call for abstract submissions to my SAH 2026 panel titled “New Insights on Histories of African Architecture”.

Studies of social, political, economic, and cultural histories of architecture made, driven, and influenced by Africans on the African continent are welcome.

Of all the great art at the University of Michigan hospitals, this - where patients & visitors put their sticker badges up on the walls while leaving is my favourite.

It’s ritual, communal, visual & performance art rolled beautifully together.
