The seminar takes place at the Tromsø city library, 3rd floor, November 25th, 12-1330 pm (open for all - free entry)
Professor Jean Hillier (on screen) from Centre for Urban Research, RMIT University, Melbourne, will reflect on open, strategic planning based on the City Development Year (BY05), and discuss how planning can become a flexible tool for societal development that can more easily navigate in ever-changing situations and conditions.
While urban planning is based on analysis and ideas, city building in practice is a pure physical-sensory-spatial experience. But where practice was previously considered to be an application of theory, we must now, according to one of the most important, free-thinking philosophers of the last century, Gilles Deleuze, find a new relationship between theory and practice. In our time, Hillier is one of those who has come the furthest in developing planning theory and practice with a Deleuzian understanding, which means that practical planning must be piercing a growing wall of obstacles – precisely in order to be operational and relevant in a complex reality and a future we do not know.
Hiller’s talk will be followed by a dialogue with Torill Nyseth (UiT) and Gisle Løkken (70°N arkitektur)
