Dear all, I wanted to share a video that ties in with yesterday’s discussion on superdiversity very well. It is a talk by Esra Akcan, from Cornell University, where she analyses ‘open architecture’, with a focus on social housing in Berlin.
She shows a picture (1:04:07) of a building extension that has satellite dishes on it, I suggest watching this short snippet (from 1:04:07 to more or less 1:07:00) and then forwarding to the question/ comment from the audience at 1:28:20.
