    CONSTELLATIONS CHINA LAB Berlin CALL FOR APPLICATIONS 2018 Boost Your Impact Enabling Sustainable Partnerships with China A program by CONSTELLATIONS International funded by Stiftung Mercator In Cooperation with MERICS, TU Berlin’s China Center and TechCode Berlin WHY - Shifting powers, ‘shrinking spaces’, huge markets and global sustainability agendas: China is on the move. Cooperation with China is both, fascinating as much as it is challenging.

WHAT - The CHINA LAB is a unique guided learning program providing a trust space for professionals engaged with China or intending to do so. It offers knowledge in 3 areas: (1) context knowledge (society, economy, politics), (2) cooperation management and project tools and (3) the ‘Who is Who’ in the stakeholder landscape along with new networks. DATES in 2018: Lab 1 March 16 & 17 ► Lab 2 May 4 & 5 ► Open Lab May 4 evening ► Lab 3 July 6 & 7, 2018 FOR WHOM - Inviting max 10 China interested organizations and their teams /executives across public, private and society sectors.

    PRESSEMITTEILUNG Eröffnung des FIFA World Football Museums TRIAD bringt Berliner Kreativität nach Zürich © FIFA World Football Museum Berlin, 24.02.2016 Am 28. Februar 2016 eröffnet das FIFA World Football Museum in Zürich. Über einen Zeitraum von fünf Jahren entwickelte die Kreativagentur TRIAD Berlin gemeinsam mit dem Team des FIFA World Football Museums das inhaltliche, gestalterische und dramaturgische Konzept. Darüber hinaus verantwortet TRIAD Berlin die bauliche und technische Planung als Generalübernehmer des 3.000 qm großen Museums. In einer interaktiven, multimedialen Erlebniswelt mit über 1000 einzigartigen Exponaten wird sicht-, hör- und fühlbar, wie der Fußball weltweit Emotionen weckt, Menschen begeistert, inspiriert und verbindet. Das Museum wird zu einem lebendigen Ort der Begegnung und Diskussion für alle Fussball- und Sportbegeisterten weltweit – für Fans, Vereine, Verbände, Freunde, Förderer, Partner und Sponsoren. Ein Erinnerungs- und Erfahrungsort der internationalen Fußballgeschichte, die bis heute maßgeblich durch den Weltfußballverband geprägt wird. Bereits die erste Inszenierung „Planet Football“ ist ein Willkommensgruss an alle, die den Fussball lieben. Einen multiperspektivischen Blick auf Fußball-Szenen aus der ganzen Welt gewähren hier die „Visions of Football“, eine Medien- und Soundinszenie- rung auf einer bis zu 8m hohen LED-Fläche. In der runden, raumgreifenden Glasvitrine, „The Rainbow“, werden die Nationaltrikots sämtlicher FIFA-Mitglieder gezeigt, während die chronologisch aufgebaute Inszenierung „The Timeline“ die historischen Meilensteine des Fußballs präsentiert. Im Untergeschoss wird mit „The World Cup Gallery“ die Entwicklung der Fußball- WM zum weltweit wichtigsten Sportereignis gewürdigt. Hier findet auch der originale FIFA WM-Pokal seinen besonderen Platz. In einem atemberaubenden 180° Panorama Kino, „The Cinema“, erleben Zuschauer WM-Fußball, wie sie ihn noch nie gesehen haben.

  • Of the Eco-City
    February 12, 2012 Sze Paper/ work in Progress PLEASE DO NOT COPY OF CITE THIS PAPER WITHOUT PERMISSION This draft paper is submitted to the for Berkeley Environmental Politics Workshop to be discussed on March 2, 2012 Contexts for this paper: This paper (working title: “The Work of the Eco-City”) is being co-written with Gerardo Gambirazzio (Postdoctoral Researcher, USEPA) for an edited collection entitled Situating Sustainability, which is the product of a workshop convened by Anne Rademacher from NYU held in Abu Dhabi in November 2010. The main questions of the conference and volume are: How are notions and practices of sustainability defined, cultivated, and assessed at global scales, while also shaped by specific contexts? What are the consequences, of the movement of sustainability knowledge and technologies across diverse, and often assymetrical, social, political, and cultural conditions? I co- authored (with Gambirazzio) a shorter version, called: “Eco-Cities without Ecology: Constructing Ideologies, Valuing Nature” for an edited volume entitled Resilience in Urban Ecology and Design: Linking Theory and Practice for Sustainable Cities (edited by Pickett, Cadenasso and McGrath). Basically, the italics represent the material that will be expanded in this new version. I haven’t yet decided which parts to include from Dongtan, to symmetrically match the Masdar material. The Dongtan research comes from my book project (Fantasy Islands), which focuses on flows, fears and fantasies in contemporary urban and global environmental culture, with a sustained look at Shanghai in China. In it, I analyze Dongtan, a failed eco-city proposal, within multiple ideological and spatial contexts, including Chongming Island, suburban development, and the 2011 Shanghai World Exposition.
