“Geoff Manaugh: Cities of the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
22 October, 7 pm
presented in English
Geoff Manaugh examines urban design in the context of epidemiology, pandemics and quarantine, including
measures taken by the United States’ government agency Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Geoff Manaugh is the author of BLDGBLOG and The BLDGBLOG Book, and a contributing editor at Wired
UK. His fall 2009 design studio Landscapes of Quarantine examines the spatial implications of quarantine –
the results of which will be the subject of a public exhibition at Storefront for Art and Architecture in early
