Weekly Digest 25/22

Good morning, diary.

I’m traveling on a train back to Helsinki, from my refreshing weekend back home. It’s almost frosty outside, sun is shining. I have my laptop open, and I’m writing this number of Weekly Digest. Blah blah, let’s move on!

Loads of ticket sales open today, and there are many events coming up, so read with care. I have highlighted noteworthy stuff happening today & this week for you.

Anyways, best of wishes for your upcoming week!

A-lumni: International Career Night 26.10.

How is practicing architecture, landscape architecture or interior architecture in Finland different to other countries? How to get employed in your own field in Finland as a non-Finnish-speaker? How to get employed abroad in general? Where in the world are the most interesting design tasks?

These and many other questions are answered in International Career Night, organized by A-lumni (Alumni Association of the Guild of Architecture) and the Department of Architecture. Four speakers working in Finland but coming from elsewhere will tell about their work and professional background and answer questions. The event is organized in English and aimed for all students in the Department of Architecture.

The event is held in Otakaari 1X, lecture hall A2. There is also a remote participation option via Zoom.

[AK] Cone x A-lumni -sitsi’s
11.11. / at 6 pm, sitsi’s at 7 pm / reg. opens today at 6 pm on Kideapp // Saha, Konemiehentie 1, Otaniemi
Cones and conks.
Time before and after graduation.
Arrangement of the opposites or a perfect coordination?
What will this unprecedented clash of the sitsit peoples of different eras and generations induce? No one knows exactly.
Will the conks, perhaps, be inspired to reveal the reality of post-graduation, or will they refresh their memory by going back to their old days? Will the cones reach the heights of the treetops to dream – will the life of the cones be more fruitful on the other side of the forest? Do the conks think they know more than the cones?
At least it is certain that this feast will be remembered. Or as the famous sitsi-song goes, will our memory fade during the evening…
But how does one distinguish cones and conks? Fortunately, there is a simple solution to this. Everyone knows that architecture students wear black (not only according to the sitsit-song), so why reinvent the wheel…
Come and experience the feast no one has ever seen before.
WHAT: The Aalto University Guild of Architecture’s first of its kind, cone x a-lumni sitsit
WHERE: in SAHA. Address Konemiehentie 1, Otaniemi, Espoo
WHEN: on Friday 11th of November – The cocktail event starting at 18, sitsit-feast at 19
WHY: because of cones, because of a-lumnis, because of sitsit, because of guild-love
PRICE: cones 18e, a-lumnis 25e
Dresscode: Cocktail – cones in black, a-lumnis in anything else but black
Kide-app page for the Cone x A-lumni sitsit event’s enrolment is now published! You can access it only via the link posted on Arkkitehtikilta-chat. The registration opens today 6 PM sharp. So be ready, since there is a limited amount of tickets available.
