Participatory City of Cartography
Liu Bauer (FR), Vera Baumann (FR)
We organize participatory talks at City Interaction lab to discuss non-standard perspectives of city analysis and city perception: "how can we see city borders? where are borders of the city and what are their roles in city formation?" As the result of the workshop, we will create a city atlas as part of the citizen science component of the City Interaction lab project. The main goal of the garden is to make the experience of city-dwelling participatory and show how everyone could contribute to city analysis and data collection in a creative way.
