He glosses “resilience imperative” as the necessity to “overhaul of our entire infrastructrure” given the current “age of unforeseeable disruption in an extreme climate future”. He provides an overview his childhood, SCI-Arc in the 1970s, decisive encounters with Ray Kappe, John Lautner, Frank Gehry and others.
