How is Social Media Shaping Architecture? / Ryan Scavnicky

In this episode, we talk about teaching and how he unexpectedly got his first teaching job after graduation. We talk about his time at Cincinnati University and at SCI-Arc, where he got a Masters in Design Theory and Pedagogy and how that degree helped him understand how to be a better design professor. We have a conversation about PhDs vs Masters, and how the role of the professor has been changing with time. He talks about his interests that are not architecture-per se, but more related to culture and how people get information and take a position through the Internet. That position being how to communicate architecture in a better way through social media. Instead of putting out pretty pictures, we should be teaching and bringing value to the community. He believes that social media is a public forum, where people can communicate about ideas. He believes it is time to broaden the discourse on social platforms.
