The event features a compelling guest speaker who will draw out the book’s big ideas and connect them to practice in Hawaiʻi\, all hosted at a cool\, thoughtfully chosen venue. \nWhether you’ve read every page\, skimmed the introduction\, or are just coming for the conversation\, the AIA Hawaiʻi Book Club is about shared curiosity and expanding how we think about our work and our world. \n\n\n \n\n\n Book Club Q4: AIA Honolulu Center for Architecture!\nFor our fourth Book Club\, we have chosen “Intellectual Anarchy" by Dr. Patrick Sullivan\, CEO of Oceanit. \nIntellectual Anarchy is about how we can find disruptive solutions to hard problems\, problems so difficult that they can seem impossible\, such as climate change\, sustainable energy\, and rising healthcare costs. Problems of that magnitude demand radical new ideas—an incremental approach won’t work. Their solutions seemingly come out of left field\, defying conventional wisdom\, and overturning existing industries\, practices\, and business models\n \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n This book details the Intellectual Anarchy methodology followed at Oceanit for generating disruptive solutions to these problems and taking them from the idea stage all the way to the market—”Mind-to-Market”—including financing innovations to overcome the scarcity of venture capital anywhere away from the conventional tech hubs. \nIntellectual Anarchy provokes critical questions that challenge conventional thinking about architecture\, design\, innovation and the future of the profession. \n\n\n\n \n\n Where to get the book? You can find the book online here. \nGood News: You do NOT have to read the book to attend. Join us for an engaging conversation designed for anyone curious about architecture and its broader context. \nOur moderator/presenter will be the author\, Dr. Sullivan. \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n Dr. Patrick Sullivan is a scientist\, engineer\, technologist\, entrepreneur\, businessman\, public speaker\, and futurist. He founded Oceanit in 1985 and developed its “Intellectual Anarchy” approach to the art of disruptive innovation. Dr. Sullivan has launched numerous private equity financed start-up and spin-out companies. In 2016\, Hawaii Business Magazine named him “CEO of the Year\,” and Hawaii Business News named him a “2019 Titan of Technology.” \n\n\n\n \n\n Dr. Sullivan will relate Intellectual Anarchy to architecture and show examples of how tech is changing; new methods and materials that create new design opportunities\, life experiences\, etc. \nWhen: October 13\, 2026 from 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM\nWhere: AIA Honolulu Center for Architecture\, 828 Fort Street Mall\, Suite 100\, Honolulu\, HI 96813\nCost: Free\nParking: Visit this link for directions to our Center for Architecture\, as well as parking suggestions. \n(We recommend the Harbor Court building next door\, as the Oceanit parking lot has limited guest parking) \n\n\n \n \n RSVP for Book Club #4\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n AIA DesignationAIAAssoc.
