The past year has seen numerous dramas competing for our attention: sub-prime mortgages, a banking meltdown, bailouts, stimulus packages, flu pandemics, wars and bankruptcy – to name a few. Starting with the question of how a problem’s formulation determines its proposed solution, Volume 20 has been dedicated to the art of storytelling. It presents the storylines of current events and architecture in order to show that while truth is important, so is the ability of fiction to elevate facts. Storytellers participating in the issue include: C-Lab, Neil Denari, Roger Dean, Dave McKean, Catherine Hardwicke, Bjarke Ingels, Lewis H. Lapham.
