NEAR Conference at Pratt
NEAR (Network for Emerging Architectural Research)
The Network for Emerging Architectural Research is a new research initiative in Graduate Architecture and Urban Design (GAUD) at The Pratt Institute School of Architecture. Intended to be an entirely new platform for experimentation in architecture and urban design, NEAR seeks to expand beyond the traditional limitations of academic research and establish a space for experimentation and development in-between academia, industries, and public institutions. Commensurate with the complexities of the 21st century, the goal of NEAR is to reach across disciplines to extend architectural knowledge and its modes of practice.

Future Shock: Escape the Urban Jungle
Published Feb. 08, 2011 By Rod James on designbuild-network.com
"...Forceful views such as this make Joachim, co-founder of urban design group Terreform ONE, not only one of the most influential thinkers in his field but also a journalist's dream. An associate professor at NYU and senior fellow of the TED organization, Joachim has done more than anyone to highlight the need for a radical rethink of the way architects and urban planners approach their trade. This desire for change is motivated by a demographic force that is becoming too strong to ignore."

Urbaneering Brooklyn NY 2110 - The Sci-Fi-Based Solution to Climate Change
An intensified version of an autarchic Brroklyn supplies all vital needs for its population. Dilapidated structures are replaced with vertical agriculture and housing merged with infrastructure.

Terreform ONE in New York Times
On Flatbush Avenue, Seven Stories Chock-Full of Ideas, by Jed Lipinski, Photos Benjamin Norman Published NYTimes: January 11, 2011.
"Mitchell Joachim, an ecological architect and one of three TED fellows (for technology, entertainment and design)on the floor, likens the Metropolitan Exchange to a modern-day version of Bauhaus, the German design school. “People here have enormous credentials and potential to succeed,” Mr. Joachim said. “Plus the rent is ridiculously cheap.” Mr. Joachim’s nonprofit design collective, Terreform One, promotes green initiatives in cities. Its conceptual projects are on display, including One-Day Tower, a model of a 53-story building built from all the trash produced by New York City in 24 hours."

BlackBook Magazine: TEDx Brooklyn, Dr. Mitchell Joachim
An Exploration of TedxBrooklyn, by Rozalia Jovanovic;
"If TEDx Brooklyn is any example of what TEDx events are like, it’s a less-polished version that takes itself less seriously, and offers a chance for people to see talks on subjects that others are passionate about. At worst it’s failed storytelling, and at best, like with Dr. Mitchell Joachim’s presentation, it exposes the audience to what some people are doing that might affect how we live, like designing stackable cars and jetpacks. Yet, TEDxBrooklyn seemed to have stronger ties than most TEDx conferences to TED. There were celebrities in the mix of presenters—like Barbara Bush (younger), Ben Bronfman, the artist Callie Curry (aka Swoon) and DJ Spooky—which added some cache. A couple of the speakers had presented at actual TED conferences, like Dr. Mitchell Joachim and Dr. Haresh Lalvani. And the founder of TED himself—Richard Saul Wurman—was there in conversation with Kurt Anderson."
"The co-founder of Terreform ONE—a leading firm in ecological design, Dr. Mitchell Joachim, gave maybe the most fascinating presentation on designing a lexicon of “smart mobility,” which included edible cars, stackable cars, and intelligent streets. His firm had also created a jet pack. “There’s a parachute in the crotch in case all hell breaks loose.”"

"Other compelling works were presented by transportation guru Dr. Mitchell Joachim of Terreform ONE design. In a rapid-fire slide show of psychedelic imagery, Dr. Joachim discussed living homes made from trained plants, jet packs for commuters and inflatable cars.
“We want cars that are so soft you can say hello to your neighbor by bumping into them,” Dr. Joachim said, “If these vehicles ran into your grandma they would tickle."”
