John Ochsendorf

John Ochsendorf spoke at PINC | Sarasota in 2015. And incredible lesson in history, architecture and engineering. PINC stands for People, Ideas, Nature, Creativity. These themes are the heartbeat of this unique conference held once a year in the Netherlands since 1999. An inspiring cascade of new ideas, great stories, and impressive visual presentations delivered by a superb selection of national and international speakers from every imaginable discipline. PINC is a truly extraordinary event. An opportunity to recharge your personal and business batteries. PINC usually features around 16 international speakers, who have little in common except that they have a passion for what they do and absolute faith in the power of innovation, inspiration and creativity. The presentations are larded with exceptional, visual, theatrical and artistic intermezzo’s. Check out her video and more on PINC Conferences YouTube channel.

He has researched the history and technology of great works of construction, including classical Roman vaults, Gothic cathedrals, Mayan arches, Inca suspension bridges and the earthquake-worthiness of Gothic cathedrals. Ochsendorf collaborates with art historians, architects, and engineers on the study and structural assessment of many historic monuments around the world. His book "Guastavino Vaulting: The Art of Structural Tile" (Princeton Architectural Press, 2010) celebrates the work of the Guastavino family, who built structural tile vaulting in hundreds of major buildings after immigrating to the United States in the late 19th century. Ochsendorf’s work spans the humanities and engineering, and his research has been supported by both the National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Science Foundation. He is a Fellow of the American Academy in Rome (2007) and a Senior Fellow of the Design Futures Council (2011). In awarding him a MacArthur Fellowship in 2008, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation called Ochsendorf “a pioneer in exploring alternative engineering traditions.”
