SYSTEMIC DESIGN DISRUPTIONS A reimagining of the role and purpose of design as a disruptive social and cultural force. The Bond Center Director discusses work undertaken by the center's diverse cast of collaborators ranging from architects to economists and data scientists.

Rickenbacker is currently the Director of the J. Max Bond Center for Urban Futures where he directs the Center's sponsored research and is an Associate Professor of Architecture at the CCNY Spitzer School of Architecture. Rickenbacker’s research and work at the Bond Center directly confronts the complex intersection of spatial equity and the social and economic impacts of place-based policies, programs, and design through the lens of urban data, forensic, and design research. His work and research has appeared in The New York Times, CNN, NY Daily News, and Global Architecture.
The Fall 2020 Lecture and Dialogue Series focuses its theme on architecture, social equity, and spatial justice. This series, and conversations and ideas that challenge and inspire us to re-envision our future, are more relevant and critically important than ever before.
