Brian Lonsway

Brian Lonsway is Associate Professor at the Syracuse University School of Architecture. He is an architectural theorist and technology researcher. Lonsway's work is invested in the evolving relationships between design technologies and spatial thought. He has lectured and written on issues concerning the spatiality of computing, the architectural theory of data, and the post-structuralist semiotics of contemporary design practices. He has completed his first book Making Leisure Work: Architecture and the Entertainment Economy, to be published in 2008, and is at work on "Informatics and Architecture: experiments and provocations", which considers the intrinsically architectural and spatial potentials of computation as an expansion of the architectural subject.

Lonsway received his B.A. in Architecture at Washington University, St. Louis and his Masters in Architecture at Columbia University.

He was a key participant and moderator at the Televisuality Symposium at the Syracuse University School of Architecture on April 11, 2008.
