research in #NYC /#Lagos /#Frankfurt on digital urban planning, changes in planning practices and the built environment. /part of @SFB1265 /based at @IRSErkner
Hello Twitter! Let us introduce us to You: We are a research team investigating #digitization in #urbanplanning. What's the changes in the work of planners, and how does this affect urban spaces? Just getting started and excited! We are also part of @IRSErkner and @SFB1265! 🙌
Scientists in #sociology, geography, cultural & media studies, architecture and #urbanplanning have contributed to this unique book collaboration with artists and graphic designers. It's a visual anthology about changing spaces & society.

Robert Moses was an infamous New York city planner in the 1950s. He was famously pro-car and essentially the arch nemesis of urban planning legend Jane Jacobs. Moses planned this horrendous expressway through Manhattan. Largely thanks to Jacobs this thing was never built.
Heute erscheint, diesmal als "die architektin", das Interview-Heft "stadterfahrungen" zu den Themen #Städtebau, #Stadtplanung und #Stadtentwicklung. Zu Wort kommen unter anderem Iris Reuther (Bremen), Elisabeth Merk (München) und Frauke Burgdorff (Aachen):

Veränderungen in Raum über Zeit visualisieren: Beliebtes Werkzeug und mehr als nur Gimmick für Stadtplaner:innen. Inwiefern lassen uns Software wie "Timelapse" Räume besser verstehen helfen?

In 2015 #Berlin built new types of refugee mass accommodations, called "Tempohomes". The short documentary “13 Square Meters” explores the perspective of refugee shelters as spaces of “care and control”. @ifporient@AyhamDalal https://t.co/T3O16FsPSa
@Zeitich@stekkerauto@simongerman600 @ElonsPadawan 1/2 They aren't important, yet they are different. Cutting daily commute by 15 mins within city regions has bigger effects than cutting travel time by 40 mins for commuting between city regions every now and than.
@Zeitich@stekkerauto@simongerman600 @ElonsPadawan 2/2 Ressources are limited: high speed train connections were favoured (investment) compared to local train infrastructure struck by desinvestment.
A decision based on nuanced analysis can have structural impact.
@stekkerauto@simongerman600 @ElonsPadawan Yet most of Germany's inhabitants life in those barely medium-sized towns. Focusing on high speed train connections does so to some extend on the expense of regular commutes. What practices to strengthen: Everyday commute or not-so-everyday far distance travels / business trips?
The process of making maps before the age of GIS was much more labour intensive. Lovely 3 minute documentary "Map Making" from 1961 is certainly worth your time. Source: https://t.co/c4agyc9pVH

Map shows the place names that contain the word 'Peak', 'Mountain', 'Ridge', 'Plain' and 'Field' across the US. Place names mirror geographic features. Good to know. Source: https://t.co/sY2l7KYzqL

"has the computer changed architecture, and if so, how?" The Architecture Machine exhibition @ArchTUM has been extended until June. Hope that we can travel and visit soon with @DigitUrbanPlan https://t.co/MlfHywbcJr
