A two week field course that explores participatory approaches to the development of public space. A neighbourhood is as much
composed of buildings and public spaces as of its inhabitants, their
passions, their habits, their activities.
Students will interact with the people in the Nordnes neighbourhood of Bergen with the goal of understanding, coordinating and promoting the latent capital that is embedded in the
neighborhood's inhabitants. Focus is placed on using the passions, habits and activities of the inhabitants to develop a series of networked public space. The final projects will form part of the Park(ing) Day event series organized by the local art center.
