CROWD SOURCING A BOOK …
for the FutureCityLab exhibition in Berlin every participant was supposed to hand in a book as an introduction to a future dialogue. My book is talking on how the “inter”net moment will have changed the city in 2050. The book is an extended version of an article I was writing for the Italian “L´Arca” magazine. I identify 4 trends: SHARING, CROWD SOURCING, CROWD FUNDING and GAMING.
The answers on how this trends might affect our future are crowd sourced into a 120 page compendium … come and visit the FutureCityLab in Berlin until the 5th of July in order to see this and other books.
Thanks to all the participants!!!!
Berlin is booming at the moment and it´s getting harder for newcomers but also start-ups to find cheap and good spaces. It seems like the developers re-discovered Berlin and a big investment cloud is landing temporary in the city. Constructions sites and cranes are popping up almost everywhere after years of absence.
Nevertheless there is still a lot of possibilities for developing innovative ideas. A great tool for all the urban innovators and pioneers is the LEERSTANDSMELDER (vacancy alarm):

So if you want to start your next Baugruppe or you just want to occupy a space I am sure you find the right spot

Welcome and short introduction to UPenn Studio Berlin: Airport Tegel - What´s next?
Matthias Rudolph (Transsolar) | Climate Informed Design
Matthias will present the role of climate engineering in the building process by exhibiting real world examples of the built environment, demonstrating how the recognition of outdoor as well as indoor climates can effectively inform design decisions. Understanding the interdependence of the built and natural environment, the impact of design decisions on qualities such as daylight, natural ventilation, air quality, thermal comfort as well as on environmental impact is essential.
Daniel Dendra (anOtherArchitect) | OccupyBerlin : When will cities we know be transformed by the net moment?
Daniel Dendra is discussing in a public lecture how social media and other technologies will change the face of our cities and will allow for more sustainable and social environments.

OpenSimSim lecture at EcoSummit 2011:
http://ecosummit.net/articles/daniel-dendra-opensimsim-open-source-design-and-architecture
“The architect and open source design advocate Daniel Dendra talks at Ecosummit 2011 about the need to share design and architecture know-how globally using the power of the Internet to accelerate the smart green transformation of the built environment. Daniel is founding partner of OpenSimSim and anOtherArchitect. I like Daniel’s ideas as I am currently thinking about a new Internet platform for prefab build-to-order smart green buildings. Reusing the best ideas for cost-efficient smart green buildings while integrating the best materials, designs and appliances – that’s a powerful vision.”

A MUST HAVE TOOL FOR ARCHITECTS
Wow this one was invented and built in our neighborhood - just one block away and I need the www in order to find it via several links. It seems there is some very interesting work going on at the TU BERLIN. I need to explore it at the next lunch break. Anyone knows someone in this department of the TU?
