- The book involved over a decade of research on multiple sites, institutions, and buildings connected to 9/11 and its aftermath. Five research trips to New York were conducted over this time, the longest lasting two months. Multiple interviews were conducted with key architects, designers, activists, and museum curators. The research involved accessing sites that are not available to the public, such as the Fresh Kills Landfill on Staten Island. Drawing together multiple fields of study (from architectural history and theory, to digital media, to political communication), the book engages in a complex, interdisciplinary analysis of these sites
