Inflated Metal
Inflated Metal Chair from Aram Bartholl on Vimeo.
Yesterday I went to see the 8.1 Pechakucha Berlin at this year DMY organised by my good friend Joachim and Iepe (famous for chess boxing in DE). I enjoyed an excellent list of 20:20 talks. Best I did like the live presentation of Oskar Zieta. Hilarious! Two welded metal plates blown up to a chair. I like that a lot. Just think of all the possibilities.
"Do-it-yourself urbanism"
I will try to make it for this book presentation on Saturday. Let’s find out what “do-it-yourself urbanism” is.
I like that term. :-)

URBAN ACT
A handbook for alternative pratice
at Pro qm Almstadtstr. 48-50, 10119 Berlin
Presentation by Doina Petrescu (atelier d’architecture autogérée) and guests
Urban Act presents a European network of practices who act within the urban public sphere as a place for political change and architectural practice, introducing their different projects, tools and methods. It not only locates and maps the activities of numerous practices, but is structured as a manual to allow insight into the methods of interventionist urban practice, like a user guide to “do-it-yourself urbanism”.
