Visiting Fellow at AHO
Tin has been granted a visiting fellowship at the Institute for Urbanism and Landscape, The Oslo School of Architecture and Design (AHO). This was also where he wrote his master thesis and got his M.Arch degree. The only comment Tin has on the title “visiting fellow” is: would mother ever say their son was merely visiting, when he came back home?
According to London School of Economics, “The Visiting Fellow scheme is intended for scholars of early post-doctoral status or pre-Major Review and researchers in the early stage of their career. The status of Visiting Fellow is non-contractual and confers no special privileges.” So basically no perks…
This marks almost seven years since Tin wandered the halls at AHO. Or to be precise - the last time Tin clocked out of AHO as a student was 16:18 - 24th of June, 2016. The heads of facility management, Anders Rennemo and Kaissar Ben Bahri Bac-Ali was able to search up Tin’s old profile and reuse his old profile picture from a decade ago. Kaissar would remark that he remembered Tin’s face, although it now was a bit chubbier and older. That is was a decade does to your face. Knowing the janitor is like knowing a U.S senator, they hold the keys to all doors (in the most literal sense).
walking the halls at AHO, Tin found two bonafide artefacts that has outlasted Tin’s other classmates: a 1:100 model of Herzog & Meuron’s Lincoln Road Park and Tin’s Aspelin Ramm Award from 2016. Note! The one hanging at AHO is merely a copy of the original, which is in Tin’s basement. It’s like the Louvre, the real treasures are in the basement.
