Description

Berlin Unlimited is an interdisciplinary exploration of Berlin: an exhibition, a talk series, a workshop and parallel events, taking place in Berlin in October 2014. As guest tutor in Berlin Unlimited, I run a five-day intensive workshop that focused on 'the concept of the guidebook' and how we can narrate 'voids, ruins and flows' in a non-representational manner (not through visual interpretation). The workshop had 6 international participants with a background in architecture, urbanism, social innovation, engineering and urban design. During the 5 days of the workshop, we used the approach of the 'experimental urban lab' to test a number of methods to draw conclusions about the key issues that the workshop dealt with. I designed, organised and facilitated this workshop with the intention to create a collaborative working, learning and sharing environment for experimentation and innovation in architectural 'praxis'.
