SUMMARY:PLOT Launch Party: Top Down Bottom Up
DESCRIPTION:&nbsp\;\n\nPlease join us for the PLOT Launch Party!\n\n&nbsp\;
 \n\nPLOT is the annual landscape journal edited by the graduate landscape 
 architecture students of the Spitzer School of Architecture. Our ninth vol
 ume\, edited by third-year MLA students Kayla Conroy\, Brandon Loo\, Cathe
 rine Priolet\, and Jeffrey Schneider\, examines "Top Down Bottom Up" -- te
 rms used in a variety of fields to describe strategies of knowledge orderi
 ng and information processing. These expressions have shifted from concept
 ual use in scientific and humanistic theories into real strategies describ
 ing the application and practice of design\, thinking\, leadership\, and r
 esistance. Grassroots organizing or authoritarianism? Break down the syste
 m into its parts\, or build up its complexity from small base elements or 
 “seeds”? Revolution or reform? Landscape architects traffic in both se
 eds and systems -- each of these approaches provides a better understandin
 g of messy οικολογία\, our “household of nature.” Top down or
  bottom up? Admittedly\, it’s a false dichotomy. Is one strategy more li
 kely to succeed? Or should we disband this axis entirely and address later
 al moves\, side-askance glances\, and inside-out inversions? More timely t
 han we ever expected\, this issue also addresses impacts and responses to 
 the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter global uprising.\n\nIsa
 ac Gertman of the Independent Group is our designer\; the work of photogra
 pher Virginia Hanusik graces our cover.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nTo join this event\,
