We would like to invite you to participate in the reading group:
Street Space - Redefining the analysis of streets as public spaces
for their critical transformation
Streets are key elements of urban space; they are in essence
public spaces and connect diverse areas of the city, weaving the urban fabric.
How do we analyse street space? How do we communicate this analysis? Can we use
a language that different disciplines will understand? How can we use these
methods to change/improve street spaces?
This reading group will explore different approaches to the
analysis of streets as public spaces. We invite students, academics and
professionals of architecture, planning, anthropology, sociology, history,
psychology, film, media, arts and any other discipline interested in the
analysis of public space.
The reading group will take place in 15 Chlorine Gardens. The next
three meetings will be on October 7, November 4 and December 2.
If you are interested in participating, please send an email to A.Martire@qub.ac.uk
