2. Remember our very special (not original) offer that TUTORS GO HALF PRICE TO easa010 - WOW!

3. We are talking to a lot of potential tutors all ready, working hard to help them make the most of their ideas by finding spaces and people in Manchester that could help / be of interest. So yeah, make the most of that if you want to propose a workshop too.

Happy New Year one and all!

Hey all! Happy new year to everyone I couldn't hug somewhere in Belgrad! My hopes for new year: the new, existing easa-homepage up and running.

But anyway the point of this post is another one. we were asking ourselves in the office what magazines we should order, somehow related to architecture and urbanism in the widest sense. There are hundreds, but most are just publishing dezeen.com-stuff two weeks after dezeen did (which is mostly not what I'm interested in, in the first place). Volume? overpriced and really good issues like 'ambition' happen only once in a while, but not often. often in fact, it's pretty boring. prss-release? thing of the past as it seams? Personally I love 'soda', but it is always hard to predict when the next issue might happen. The economist is well written and keeps you up to date about what's going on in the world, but it's still what the name suggests. El croquis? the ones I bought as a gift to myself after handing in turned out to be very very bad (and very very expensive). There are good ones, do you know any?

Anyway, what do you read? What not, why? no matter what language or favour, whether going more into art, economics or theory. Thanks in advance, Luis

Hello all - Happy new Year

wow, time can really fly. Deadlines are fast approaching for application for participants to SESAM - First Sight, go to:

www.sesam010.co.uk

for all the details and application form. The event gives a fantastic chance to see a side of Manchester that few get a chance to, plus the chance to have an input into easaHQs up coming 'EASA - the exhibition', an all encompassing overview of EASA, from 1981 - 2011.

The deadline for workshops for easa010 is on the horizon now too. There is more info going up on the website all the time, but the main thing to remember is - talk to us. We are working with a few people interested in running workshops already. The aim is to talk as much as possible to help prospective tutors put together really strong applications.

Maybe you haven't run a workshop before, maybe you have but want to do something you may think is over ambitious - talk to us about it. We are working with some really interesting people in Manchester, maybe you'd like to get specific skills help - talk to us.

We're working hard to put stuff together like accommodation and things like that, we are working so that when the network gets here they feel at home - EASA will take over. We are in communication with lots of people already, but keep it up, let us know what you think, ask us what you don't know already.

It's great to hear from people as we like people.

Best wishes from all at easaUK.

easaUK announce SESAM010

The organising team, in preparation for easa010, are proud to announce their first international event of the year, a Small European Schools of Architecture Meeting within the City of Manchester.

After the first EASA, which was initiated in Liverpool, Manchester hosts the first event in the UK in 29 years.

This SESAM will be many students' first opportunity to visit the UK and Manchester, and will give them the experience of reacting to a side of the city which is not possible during a summer assembly.  This reaction will manifest itself in an installation within one of the largest and most comprehensive exhibitions solely dedicated to EASA.

For further information please click through to www.sesam010.co.uk or email sesam@easauk.net.

Hope to see some of you very very soon.

Hi to all,

I`m a third year student of applied architecture in the University of Applied Sciences in Estonia and also a new member of this web page.

I find this organisation to be a really good opportunity for contacting other architecture students all over the Europe. Looking forward to getting to know you.
