[rohrpost] Urban Drift 9th - 13th October

["Julia Schneider" <julia.schneider@student.hu-berlin.de>]

URBAN DRIFT CONFERENCE // FROM FORMALISM TO FLUX: MOBILITY AND NEW URBAN
STRATEGIES

***Café Moskau, Karl Marx Allee 34, Berlin Mitte, 9th - 13th of October***

The conference intends to reflect both the potential generated by flux -
incorporating mobility in design and in the analysis of the urban condition,
and at the same time to demonstrate innovative strategies that confront the
negative impact of a globalised, mobilised economy - peripheral, residual
spaces, and how to "reactivate" them.
