Something’s Cooking in the city laboratory of Urban Labs 09
Everything is ready in the kitchens of distinction @ Urban Labs. Right up to the very last minute new projects have been coming in and new groups set up to participate in Urban Labs, meanwhile the omnipresent Enric Senabre was moving heaven and earth to get everything tied up definitively.
In total 26 projects are to be put on fast boil for these three days in the Plaça de la Creació, the most 2.0 area at Citilab situated at the top floor of the CitiLab building. As a change from last year, this time we are pleased to have on board Platoniq, with whom we have prepared new dynamic features in order to make the experience more productive.
Around the 9 tables different thematic dishes are being spiced up, where the work-groups will be free to add those vital ingredients until the dish gains the requisite consistency. There has been no previous choosing of the subject-areas, as we did for the first year, rather they have been based according to the proposals which have come in.
This is the menu on offer (from the host’s table...):
The perceived city and social creativity
Culture and Art 2.0 as a means to get hold of public spaces
Rurban Lab, the city learns from the country
Open business
Day-centres for senior citizens for the XXIst Century
Volunteering and social innovation
I.T. Territory
