À propos de ce contenu audio

 How does our built environment create new questions about our world today? Whether demolished or in construction, Pauline Blanchet explores cities, neighbourhoods, and buildings. Influenced by London's changing streets due to gentrification, in each episode, she dives into a question about the cities in the midst of change. From Modernist Estates to the 2024 Paris Games, she explores the social impact on communities at the heart of cities. In every third episode, the Urban Activist online magazine will also come on board to dive head-first into a city’s activist communities.Pauline Blanchet Sciences sociales

    • An Architectural Tour of Skopje

      An Architectural Tour of Skopje
      May 3 2023
      Take a tour through the architectural history of Skopje with architect Dragan Krstevski, as he leads me through the city I now call home. Skopje’s earthquake of 1963 was a significant turning point that led to a massive rebuilding effort, resulting in a master plan in metabolism style by Kenzo Tange that still defines the city's architectural landscape today. We also discuss Dragan’s involvement in the protests against the controversial urban regeneration program of 2014.

    • Data Centres & The Anthropocene

      Data Centres & The Anthropocene
      Apr 19 2023

      I’m taking a small dive into the Paris Digital Park for this mini-episode. This mega complex of four data centres, being built in the northern suburbs of Paris, is set to be the largest data centre in Europe. I’m asking, how useful is the Anthropocene framework when analysing data centres?

      How to Save a Building & DokuFest
      Apr 5 2023

      Let’s delve into the world of Dokufest, a documentary film festival in the city of Prizren in Kosovo. Pauline speaks with Alba Çakalli, the Festival Producer about the event's beginnings in 2001 and its growth into one of the most important film festivals in the region. We also learn about the festival's impact on the city of Prizren, its people, and the film industry and how the Lumbardhi building is at the centre of it all. The festival is now a major ambassador of Kosovo, bringing attention to the region's rich cultural heritage through qualitative programming and important partnerships with international organisations.
