Almost 40 people from several Countries attended. The theoretical part focused on a multidisciplinary mix of neurophysiology, complexity, biology, urban sociology and service design so to encourage people thinking out of the box about urban design, and considering the relevance of body, senses, locality, and real people needs. The practical workshop was directed by professor Marco Casagrande, who encouraged students to get in touch with the local environment in order to “become by doing” and act accordingly to what they had learned. Here’s the list of the teaching staff and of the participants: • Philosopher and psychologist Stefano Serafini (I.S.B., Italy) introduced the use of environmental psychology and post-darwinian biological theories to re-orient the approach to design. • Artist and architect prof. Marco Casagrande (Ruin Academy, Finland/Taiwan) led hand- building experiences after listening to the city’s organism (biourban acupuncture). • Design thinker and architect Yulia Kryazheva (Yulia Ink., The Netherlands) introduced the use of sketching & drawing as a tool to get in touch with the complexity of a place. • Professor Antonio Caperna (I.S.B.,Italy),architect,and professor Eleni Tracada (University of Derby, UK), architect, introduced and showed practical examples of Biourbanism and algorithmic sustainable design.

    AND 2015 AIA FLORIDA CONVENTION AND TRADE SHOW JULY 30-AUGUST 2 BOCA RATON RESORT AND CLUB 1 As the devisers, makers and creators of the built environment, architects contribute daily to the advancement of the profession. While architects work to design a relevant and resilient future, the struggle to ensure today’s work will remain impactful and beneficial in the years to come is faced at every professional bend in the road. Under the direction of convention committee chair, Steve Jernigan, FAIA and AIA Florida Vice President J.J. Scott, AIA, the 2015 Convention is centered on the theme Resilience and Relevance. With a vast array of topics applicable to all aspects of practice and career stages, this year’s program offers an expanded agenda with more variety than ever before. In addition to traditional educational sessions, this year’s courses will focus on marketing and branding strategies, navigation of legal issues, the effect of space planning on informal interactions, elevating architects to positions of influence through leadership development and more. To start the weekend off, our annual meeting this year will address important bylaw revisions, positioning our association to remain a relevant leader on the national scene. The 2015 kick off speaker, Steve Luoni, Assoc. AIA, will address the built environment and design’s role in building urban resiliency, emphasizing the city as ecology. But that is just the beginning! Keynote speakers, Randy Brown, FAIA, Marco Casagrande and Rusty Smith will continue to explore the intersection of the environment, growth, health, sustainability, education and architecture. Also back this year by popular demand - Emerging Professional programming offers both EP focused sessions and social opportunities.

The aim is to find solutions to how a more flexible development can be brought about in the specific area around the Teltow Canal on the outskirts of Berlin. In the thesis, it argues that planning regulations and methods have not been able to keep up with the rapid changes in society which has led to urban environments not being flexible enough when conditions change.

Vine Street Los Angeles, CA 90068, US 2135483673 [email protected] Submitted: Jul 9 2012 10:15PM CST/CDT Tags: Yes Port Port Pier 92 Eligibility 1. Are you a professional practicing artist residing in one of the following states: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, or Wyoming? If you do not reside in one of these states, you are not eligible to apply to this call. Yes Letter of Interest 1. Letter of Interest: 1 Ball, Benjamin 2160504614 To create a monumental artwork for Pier 92 is an opportunity to make more than an engaging kinetic installation or multimedia project; it presents a chance to engage residents of Bayview by means of a symbolic gateway to their community. Pier 92 is a visual hub, it connects vantage points along major roads and bridges, but it is not a setting that one typically associates with art. It is hiding in plain sight – a remnant of an era that is fading from collective memory. In contrast, a major artwork that engages the silos can be a potent symbol of change for the community: the artwork itself can be an axis on which the past pivots to become the future. If we understand the surrounding neighborhood as an organism, art can serve as “urban acupuncture” (a concept originated by urban theorist Marco Casagrande), a tactical needle prick to the body of the City, the effects of which will ripple through Bayview.

They are cultural centers installed in vulnerable areas, focusing on creative economy fields such as gastronomy, film, music, design and crafts helps vulnerable groups like homeless people, sole mothers, young people and rehab drug addicts, providing platforms for their social and political capacity building, fostering notions of cultural belongingness.

En eikeskog, plantet i en forlatt lekter fylt med kompostert «human waste» tilsvarende hva Venezias produserer i løpet av 60 minutter dannet rammen for dette arbeidet. Casagrande startet Casagrande Laboratory, ( C-lab ) Helsingfors (2003-)og C-lab Taiwan, hvor han nå arbeider med medarbeidere med ulik bakgrunn innen arkitektur, byplanlegging, design, og kunst. 1 Casagrandes arbeider i krysningspunkter mellom disipliner - installasjonskunst, arkitektur, sirkus, urbanisme, performance, og økologisk og bærekraftig planlegging - hvor disiplin er underliggende historien i arbeidet. Hans arbeider er karakteristiske i sin søken etter «Human Layer» den underbevisste arkitekturen og det virkelig virkelige - «Real reality» og bærer preg av dette i sin stillferdige og ofte aksjonistiske form. .. in search for subconscious architecture, real reality and connection between the modern man and nature,one shall not be blindfolded by stress, the surroundings of economics, the online access to entertainment or information. What is real is valuable.. Marco Casagrande «Treasure Hill» transformerte han et illegalt bebodd område til et eksperiment laboratorium for økologisk urbanisme. For dette arbeidet ble Casagrande utnevnt som kandidat for «professor of ecological urban planning» i Tamkang University i Taiwan.
