<\/p>\nDoctoral Summer School ETHZ\/EPFL
\nJune 11th \u2013 15th, 2018
\nLausanne, Switzerland<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I organized this summer school, and obtained financing from the ETH Board along with my co-organizers: Thibault Romany of LAZUR and Eirini Kasioumi of ETHZ\u00a0\u00a0Institut f\u00fcr St\u00e4dtebau.<\/p>\n
We were excited to welcome influential keynote speakers like Eduardo Rico, Ekim Tam, Jacques Levy and Alexandre Alahi. We worked with the participating students to develop diagrams of methodological and epistemological concerns central to their doctoral research projects.<\/p>\n
EPFL\/ETHZ\u2019s summer school\u00a0Relational Space\/ Relational Urbanism<\/strong>\u00a0empowers young researchers in urbanism and the sciences of the city to explore the spatial dimension of the social. The summer school revolves around the premise that urban complexity requires the deployment of new tools of assembling knowledge and new ways of translating knowledge into action; and that a relational understanding of space can profoundly change\u00a0both.<\/em><\/p>\n Participants will be exposed to new epistemic movements (big data, bottom-up social theory) and state-of-the-art practices in urban planning and design. Working in trans-disciplinary teams, and benefitting from the guidance of our distinguished keynote speakers, they will refine the conceptual framework of their individual research projects and sharpen the relevance of their research questions.<\/em><\/p>\n The overarching theme: relational space<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The guiding concept of the summer school is the notion of\u00a0relational space\u2013 the complex space of interaction between human and non-human actors that characterizes today\u2019s hyper-dense, hyper-connected urban landscape. How can we measure and map the increasingly intricate webs of interaction in our cities? How does the idea of relational space change our methods of studying and designing the city?<\/em><\/p>\n https:\/\/rsru2018.epfl.ch\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Doctoral Summer School ETHZ\/EPFL June 11th \u2013 15th, 2018 Lausanne, Switzerland I organized this summer school, and obtained financing from the ETH Board along with my co-organizers: Thibault Romany of LAZUR and Eirini Kasioumi of ETHZ\u00a0\u00a0Institut f\u00fcr St\u00e4dtebau.
