AUTONOMA - M. Kikidou, M. Patelida & G. Somarakis - Imagine the CityAutonoma Conference
Public space, and especially public urban space has been recognised by many scientists as a part of “commons” for local communities. From this perspective, space and society are connected through a reciprocal relationship and residents are not only receivers, but also creators of public space. This consideration appeared during the previous century and constituted the core of the controversy about the “top-down” approach of urban planning, where decision-makers and experts decide about the future of a city without public participation. One of the planning approaches, which emerged from the aforementioned criticism, was the participatory approach, which can be conducted through different methods and techniques. A technique, used for public information or interaction, is “exhibits”, which consists of exposed plans, designs, photographs, drawings or other visual displays with certain topic or audience at a specific location.
In this context, Imagine the City (ITC) developed as a series of exhibitions aiming to sparkle the dialogue among different local groups of interest (public authorities, city experts and citizens) and to fill the gap between decision-making and the plentiness of regeneration proposals for the city. Since 2010, when it was launched in the city of Chalkida, it has been a living and open network, which explores new ways and procedures to experience and shape the urban landscape. There have already been such exhibitions in 13 cities, with the participation of 632 researchers and more than 40.000 citizens.
This paper seeks to investigate ITC’s local teams’ development and to analyse whether the exhibitions impacted local communities and decision-making. What was the internal structure of local teams and how each of them collaborated with the core team? Τo what extent, have the exhibitions raised public awareness about citizens’ potential role in urban planning, encouraged groups of local citizens, and affected the decision-making processes in cities?

This document provides a summary of the Hedonic Map of Austin project, which aims to map shared emotional experiences through public art installations and data collection. The project will engage the public through surveys about memorable places in Austin tied to different emotions. It will then create visualizations of the collected data through kinetic sculptures, location markers, mobile apps, and more. The goal is to reveal what connects communities and give citizens a way to share meaningful experiences that create attachments to places around Austin. The project timeline outlines phases from 2014-2016 that include public exhibitions, an interactive art show, and developing digital platforms to showcase the collected stories and maps.
Map kathmandu osm nepal presentation - publicRajeev Amatya
The document discusses an initiative called MapKathmandu that aims to create a detailed and free online map of the Kathmandu Valley using crowdsourcing. A group of students and professionals see a need for an improved map to help with disaster relief, navigation, and new location-based apps. Their plan is to map streets, buildings, landmarks and other points of interest in Kathmandu onto OpenStreetMap with the help of volunteers. They believe an open community mapping project is the best way to develop an accurate and up-to-date digital map of the area.

It provides background on conflicts driving displacement from the Middle East in particular.
Best Practice Guide to Accessible Routes in Historic Cities - 2013 by LHAC Scott Rains
Launched in 2010, the League of Historical and Accessible Cities (LHAC) is a pilot project focusing on improving the accessibility of historical towns while at the same time promoting the development of sustainable tourism and the protection of cultural heritage.
The main goal of the project is not only to allow people with disabilities and their families to take full enjoyment from leisure and cultural activities, but also to stimulate tourism among the 80 million people with disabilities living in Europe.
Ronald Lucardie is a Dutch social and cultural anthropologist born in 1948 in Indonesia. He has worked as a policy advisor for Cordaid Netherlands and the Dutch Consortium of Migrant Organizations (DCMO). EUNOMAD is a European network that Lucardie helped establish in 2007. It aims to be a public arena for dialogue on practices linking migration, citizenship, integration and development. EUNOMAD recognizes migrants' contributions and believes cultural diversity enriches societies. It advocates for rational debate on immigration in Europe.
The document summarizes research on public spaces in four European cities: Lviv, Manchester, St. Petersburg, and Sofia. The researchers observed how city squares, as traditional public spaces, have changed due to commercialization, privatization, and regulation. While squares have been renovated, they have also limited public access and activities to prioritize consumption. However, the research found that squares still serve some public functions and are sites of protest. The researchers question whether squares should still be considered public spaces and discuss rethinking the concept of public space in modern cities.

This document describes several projects by the artist involving illustrated documentation and mapping of complex processes:
1. As a "spy-illustrator" in Actopolis, the artist produces drawings to document meetings and register information as an "info processing agent", making the various facets of discussions visually accessible.
2. In Mons Invisible, the artist uses illustration and documentation to map out a complex discussion, representing it as a circular drawing to symbolize equality and sharing.
3. In Mons La Fontaine, the artist creates a conceptual drawing telling the story of how two realities - the physical construction and dynamic inhabiting - intersect and influence each other over time.
Using Minecraft as a citizen participation tool in urban design and decision ...Ericsson
In partnership with UN-Habitat, Ericsson has carried out a social impact assessment of the use of Minecraft as a community participation tool in public space design in Kirtipur, Nepal.
Urban interaction design is an emerging field that brings together practitioners from various disciplines to address complex issues in the networked city. It combines approaches from the fields of urban studies focusing on societal issues, interaction design focusing on technology, and design focusing on experience. As an interdisciplinary field, it involves collaboration between academics, professional designers, engineers, policymakers, and various urban stakeholders. Practitioners are incorporating methodologies from different traditions to tackle issues from a holistic perspective. This has led to new, shared vocabularies and approaches that bridge traditional disciplinary boundaries.
This document summarizes a talk about what makes the parkrun event series successful. The speaker observed parkrun events and drew on sociological theories of infrastructure. Parkrun events are free weekly 5k runs that have standardized formats, digital tools for registration and results, and financial and community support. The speaker identifies seven key aspects that differentiate parkrun: 1) standardized format, 2) startup event funding, 3) digital tools, 4) strong community support, 5) support from public authorities, 6) branding and marketing, and 7) remaining free. The speaker argues parkrun has been successful due to its infrastructuring but could be improved through a sociological lens to address issues of accessibility and inclusion.
Artivism - Teaching Privacy and Surveillance in the UK Higher Education Yuwei Lin
Seminar talk at the TAMK International Week 2018 (Friday 27th April 2018). Artistic approaches can be powerful tools for mobilising social actions against unjustice or socio-political problems. Artivism, referred to as ‘aesthetic-political interventions’ (Rigamonti 2014) and ‘a new form of politics’ (Rigamonti in 2016), can be embedded in curriculum. Such entanglements of aesthetics and politics politicize and underline the criticality of the learning content in artistic languages. In this talk, I will share my experience of encouraging students to engage with artivism for defending privacy and defying surveillance. I will discuss not only the opportunities of artivism in shaping the public discourse around privacy and surveillance, but also the challenges in including artivism in the teaching.

Some Methodological Thoughts on Using Text Mining for Frame Analysis of Media...Yuwei Lin
This document discusses the challenges of frame analysis in media content and how computer-assisted methods using text mining can help address some of these challenges. It outlines the labour intensive and subjective nature of manual frame coding and how text mining allows more efficient processing of large corpora. However, it also raises important methodological issues regarding the impact of corpus size, subjective interpretations, levels of meaning, and standardization of analysis units. Addressing these issues is key to determining how computer-assisted methods can best support frame analysis.

Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey ...SirmaDuztepeliler
"Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey Toward Sustainability"
The booklet of my master’s thesis at the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. (Gothenburg, Sweden)
This thesis explores the transformation of the vacated (2023) IKEA store in Kållered, Sweden, into a "Reuse Hub" addressing various user types. The project aims to create a model for circular and sustainable economic practices that promote resource efficiency, waste reduction, and a shift in societal overconsumption patterns.
Reuse, though crucial in the circular economy, is one of the least studied areas. Most materials with reuse potential, especially in the construction sector, are recycled (downcycled), causing a greater loss of resources and energy. My project addresses barriers to reuse, such as difficult access to materials, storage, and logistics issues.
Aims:
• Enhancing Access to Reclaimed Materials: Creating a hub for reclaimed construction materials for both institutional and individual needs.
• Promoting Circular Economy: Showcasing the potential and variety of reusable materials and how they can drive a circular economy.
• Fostering Community Engagement: Developing spaces for social interaction around reuse-focused stores and workshops.
• Raising Awareness: Transforming a former consumerist symbol into a center for circular practices.
Highlights:
• The project emphasizes cross-sector collaboration with producers and wholesalers to repurpose surplus materials before they enter the recycling phase.
• This project can serve as a prototype for reusing many idle commercial buildings in different scales and sizes.
• The findings indicate that transforming large vacant properties can support sustainable practices and present an economically attractive business model with high social returns at the same time.
• It highlights the potential of how sustainable practices in the construction sector can drive societal change.
