| Abstract | Focusing on mineral building materials and relevant sciences, this postdoctoral project (2017-20) explores anew technological and cultural exchange across Europe, US and China in the 19th and 20th centuries. The overall goal is to build interdisciplinary dialogues across science and humanities. Against some problematic historiographies around architecture, this materiality-based approach has brought to the surface less-known or unaddressed knowledge of building materials and practices of processing and using them, revealing an unspoken culture in the Western engineering history. |
