Digital Landscape Architecture is built from the knowledge and contributions of academics, practitioners, and researchers, as well as by an awareness of history coupled with visions of the future. We are pleased and excited to host three dynamic speakers at DLA2022 who together represent a fusion of all these critical perspectives, and whose experience, insights, and comments will deepen and broaden the vibrant discussion that marks every DLA conference. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”3.19.18″][et_pb_fullwidth_image src=”http:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/DLA220-HYBRID-BANNER.png” _builder_version=”3.19.18″][\/et_pb_fullwidth_image][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” prev_background_color=”#000000″ _builder_version=”3.17.6″ custom_padding=”17px|0px|54px|0px|false|false” custom_padding_phone=”0px|0px|54px|0px”][et_pb_row use_custom_width=”on” width_unit=”off” custom_padding=”27px|0px|4px|0px|false|false” _builder_version=”3.17.6″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.19.18″ text_font=”Exo 2|300|||||||”] DLA Keynote Speakers 2022 Digital Landscape Architecture is built from the knowledge and contributions of academics, practitioners, and researchers, as well as by an awareness of history coupled with visions of […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-136","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/136"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=136"}],"version-history":[{"count":59,"href":"https:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/136\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2586,"href":"https:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/136\/revisions\/2586"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/2022.dla-conference.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=136"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}} Mirka Bene\u0161, University of Texas at Austin\u00a0\u00a0 “Hybridity”<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n
