Il GRIDAS non si tocca!
The GRIDAS is a longstanding social centre in the Scampia neighbourhood. During more than 40 years of institutional neglect, GRIDAS has always been a point of social life, self-managed culture and political struggle in the area.

But that the airport and the Tempelhof field were an important part of the Nazi propaganda machinery and that numerous […]
Tour on Upgrading, Displacment and Resistance in Kreuzberg
In this city walk we will take a look at the historical developments of this turbulent Berlin district in the post-war period and its transformation from a traditional working-class neighborhood and subcultural free space to the hip scene district and investor’s dream of today.

A Right to a Garden City?

Body Mapping at Birmingham UCU Teachouts
As part of the Birmingham UCU Teachouts, we conducted the workshop “Bodies, Maps, Words: A Creative Writing Workshop” with James Lewis and Cristina Fernández Recasens. Starting from the question of how we unlearned to perceive geographical space through physical feelings and intentions by maps, we asked how we actually perceive and create university space with our bodies.
