A talk on soils and land use at the architecture school, Nancy

École nationale supérieure d'architecture de Nancy

On Tuesday 17 November 2026 at 18:00 the École nationale supérieure d'architecture de Nancy hosts a lecture by Patrick Henry, an architect-urbanist and professor at the ENSA Paris-Belleville, titled Vers une trajectoire intractiviste des territoires. The listing says that in France land artificialisation is advancing four times faster than the population, and that despite the Climate and Resilience law and the zero net artificialisation goal the trajectory barely bends. It argues this reveals a crisis of paradigm, an extractivist model that treats soil as a surface and a stock to exploit, and proposes using Karen Barad's concept of intra-action to see soils as having a capacity to act. The talk draws on cases of land sobriety, research and field reports. It runs from 18:00 to 20:00 and entry is free. A public lecture is easy to attend alone, and the discussion invites questions. «Conférence de l'école nationale supérieure d'architecture de Nancy par Patrick Henry, architecte-urbaniste et professeur à l'ENSA Paris-Belleville.» Starts 18:00, ends about 20:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Ecole nationale supérieure d'architecture de Nancy (open data). The listing gives 20:00 as the end. The listing gives the entry as free.

Ciné-débat "120 battements par minute" at the Cameo cinema in Nancy

Cameo Commanderie

On Thursday 26 November 2026 at 19:45 the Cameo Commanderie art-house cinema in Nancy shows 120 battements par minute (120 Beats Per Minute) as a ciné-débat, a screening followed by a discussion. The film follows the Act Up-Paris activists in the early 1990s, when AIDS had been killing for almost ten years and the group staged actions against public indifference, seen through a newcomer who joins them. The listing gives no ticket price and no name for the speaker, so check the cinema page and the ticketing link before you go. The evening runs about two hours and a quarter, to roughly 22:00. A film with a debate afterwards is one of the easiest ways to meet people alone: everyone has just seen the same story, and conversation starts by itself. «Ciné-débat - Début des années 90.» Starts 19:45, ends about 22:00.
