Maintaining Culture: Creativity, Ownership, and Community in Urban Spaces

Aktivitet: Tale eller præsentationForedrag og mundtlige bidrag

Beskrivelse

I presented Illutron as a case study, interpreting maintenance not just as upkeep but as the cultivation of culture, creativity, and shared ownership. By fostering collective responsibility and creative spaces, we sustain artistic communities like Illutron—a floating cultural hub in Copenhagen’s harbour. This talk examined how such approaches can inform broader discussions on urbanism and landscape architecture.

Part of the second session focuses on care, maintenance, and repair, featuring voices from those who maintain landscapes, buildings, and cities. Through storytelling, we explore how these actors engage with the material world and consider how knowledge is generated within institutions and organizations

This symposium brings together diverse perspectives—scientific, practical, artistic, industrial, and experimental—across both complementary and conflicting views. It emphasizes democratizing knowledge, including forms often overlooked in academic and industrial settings.
