New technologies and datafication in so-called smart cities affect how we interface with the city. Social, economic and technological changes also lead to new urban frictions, and increasingly put strain on collectively shared urban commons and the right to the city. This shifting landscape of urban politics and power dynamics and the role of media, arts, and performance, provides the framework for this seminar series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the graduate seminar series The Right to the City & Urban Commons , students participate in three seminar sessions and a 2-day \u2018pressure cooker\u2019 workshop. The first seminar will focus on conceptualizing the notions of \u2018the right to the city\u2019 and the \u2018urban commons\u2019. What are today\u2019s urban commons and how can people claim their right to the city in contemporary shifting urban conditions? The second session is dedicated to current urban common practices, and the imagining of new ones, from the perspective of media, art and performance projects. Several case studies will be discussed and analyzed. The third seminar prepares participants for the two-day pressure cooker workshop, where students will learn how to put their theoretical knowledge into practice through the use of a \u2018critical making\u2019 approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students prepare readings for every seminar and write short blog posts to be put on the website of [urban interfaces]. The pressure cooker workshop \u2013 organized in collaboration with partners HKU and Creative Coding Utrecht \u2013 consists of two days in which hands-on making is combined with in-depth theoretical analyses and inspirational keynote speakers. During these two days, students work in small groups on the design of urban public interventions that depart from Elinor Ostrom\u2019s commons design principles. This critical making workshop trains students to put their theoretical knowledge into practice and to position themselves within the current debates on urban commons and the right to the city.<\/p>\n
