Plenary Speakers

Conference Programme

Last updated: 1 July 2007

Programme Change

Rem Koolhaas's re-scheduled lecture for Friday 13th July 15.30-16.30 will NOT now take place. The conference will open with the Kittler/Hasumi Plenary on Friday 13th July at 17.00, followed by the reception at 19.00, as originally announced. We apologise for any inconvenience that this will cause.

The reason Rem Koolhaas is unable to come is that his schedule changed at the last minute as he was summoned to Dubai to discuss on 13th and 14th July 'a unique project, a once in a lifetime opportunity' - an unprecedented architectural venture both for Rem and his OMA (Office for Metropolitan Architecture) company.

We would much appreciate your understanding in this matter and we do look forward to seeing you in Tokyo.

Please note that the plenary session times and order of speakers have been changed.
