In this introduction we hear from Joseph Bedford addressing what this issue is about, who he interviewed, what their work is about, what questions he asked everyone, why he undertook the project, and how his interests in this generation intersect with his larger interest in the fate and future of theory, and the understanding of architecture as a discipline.

8A. Introduction

Attention is an audio journal for architectural culture that uses the medium of sound and spoken word to capture a dimension of architecture otherwise lost in print. By precluding visual media, Attention strikes a distance between the distraction economy of much online media, creating an intimate and reflective space for the in-depth development of ideas and issues. Through interviews, roundtable debates, oral histories, field recordings, the exploration of archival recordings, experimental music and soundscapes, reportage and audio essays, Attention investigates issues of concern to contemporary architectural culture, theory and practice.
