PATIO Conversation 04 explores the theme of "Material and Construction Histories," focusing on historical and geospatial movement of specific materials and questioning how materials and buildings are shaped by multiple social, cultural, and economic dynamics within the region. First, from Yale University will present their research on 'Mineral Landscapes of Cement-Concrete in South Asia' where they will explore sites of extraction and the nature of infrastructure within mutually constitutive mineral, industrial, laboural, built and imagined landscapes. We will then shift to a discussion of technology application, where from CEPT University will present their work on the 'Techno-Material History of the Old Bombay-Poona Road,' exploring the early twentieth century experimentation with cement-concrete in road making. Through a discussion of archival photographs, they will further trace the evolution of road making in the post-independence period and discuss its implications for modernisation and nationalisation. Our expert respondent for this session is from Ahmedabad University, who will build on this discussion based on his own research in History of Science and Technology in South Asia.
