Dr Eugenia Fratzeskou & Regner Ramos will be running “Mapping emergence: nomads, nodes, paths, and strings” workshop unit as part of the Urban Transcripts 2012 international workshop on London.

The Urban Transcripts 2012 international workshop on the city

London, 3-9 December 2012

A 17-strong international tutor team of practising architects, researchers in architecture and urbanism, artists, and linguists are leading this years’ Urban Transcripts workshop on the city. Focusing on London’s actual problematics, combining on-site visits, urban explorations, studio work and social events, the workshop is an interdisciplinary exercise in understanding the urban condition and working towards collaborative solutions.

The workshop is open both to students and non-students; it will be of particular interest to students past their 2nd year of study, postgraduate students, and recent graduates, in disciplines related to the study of the city and urban intervention; notably architecture, urbanism, planning, geography, the social sciences, and the arts.
