Abstract
ARGUS is a student-led publication based in the architecture department of the University of Idaho. The publication’s uniqueness lies in its identity as a ‘roadside’ journal, with each issue proposing to explore what happens along a route – whether land, water, or air – that intersects the state of Idaho. The first issue of ARGUS seeks to explore the Great Continental Divide of the Americas. Submissions to the publication are asked to explore the multiple dimensions through which this route has been represented, imagined, negotiated, and ultimately built. Our ambition is to reach architects, artists, institutions, and social realities crossed by this route, connecting the dots to form a better understanding of the Continental Divide.
