The Soft Cosmos of AD’s ‘Cosmorama’ in the 1960s and 1970s
Between 1968 and 1973, the innovative ‘Cosmorama’ section of AD played an influential role in promoting alternative technologies and ecological experiments. Here, guest‐editor Lydia Kallipoliti provides her own ‘soft cosmos’: a genealogy of ecological material experimentation and thinking in the 1960s and 1970s, which puts particular stress on the biological, elastic, moulded and pneumatic.
