Reframing Public Space Evaluation through Multisited and Plurispatial Perspectives
This paper proposes a multisited and plurispatial methodological framework for evaluating public space as a justice-oriented method that foregrounds the lived trajectories of precarious migrants across overlapping spatial and policy scales. Ever since Vikas Mehta’s Public Space Index (2014) articulated a multidimensional, site-based evaluative model, the field has increasingly approached public space evaluation as a hybrid practice combining obse…

Embodied Infrastructures
Infidel to academic disciplinarity, and employing a poetic, feminist reading of two vignettes and a case study, this paper presents “embodied infrastructures” as a fundamental grammar of prefigurative politics through which a redirected society rehearses an “otherwise” political future. Embodied infrastructures are identified in the people’s mic of the Occupy movement (2011), and the human chain and “home thrown in the mud” in the women’s antinuc…

Space, Supplies, Solidarity in an Intensive Treatment Unit during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Interview with Efie Galiatsou, ITU Doctor in a London Hospital
Dr Efie Galiatsou is a critical care consultant working in an Intensive Treatment Unit (ITU) in a hospital in north-west London. This interview was conducted on April 12, 2020, near the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the interview, we talk about the spatial re-organization of the hospital during the pandemic; the problem of supply shortages; and questions of solidarity, activism, and multi-disciplinarity in the context of the pandemic. This in…
Temporarily Open
ESDI Aberta (Open ESDI), a movement of political pedagogy, was initiated in Brazil’s Superior School of Industrial Design, also known as ESDI, in 2016–17 during a period of financial and political crisis. The movement involved the occupation of the school’s premises and social media by the students, and the establishment of new collaborative processes of design and pedagogy among the school’s numerous constituents (students, faculty, staff, alumn…
Designing the Olympics
Designing the Olympics claims that the Olympic Games provide opportunities to reflect on the relationship between design, national identity, and citizenship. The "Olympic design milieu" fans out from the construction of the Olympic city and the creation of emblems, mascots, and ceremonies, to the consumption, interpretation, and appropriation of Olympic artifacts from their conception to their afterlife. Besides products that try to achieve conse…
Tokyo's 1964 Olympic design as a ‘realm of [design] memory’
This essay examines the graphic design of the Tokyo 1964 Games as a symbolic site through which Japan's postwar identity was re-articulated in relation with both the realm of internationalization and tradition. The visual language utilized by the Tokyo Games adhered to the anti-historical approach of modernism, while it also encoded the visual composition of crest design, established in medieval Japan. In encoding their tradition in not directly …
The Beijing National Stadium as Media-space
This essay examines the Olympic Games as a media-space which comprises both physical and mediated spatial attributes. Focusing on the Beijing National Stadium it addresses the new post-geographical spatial experiences that are produced by the layering of physicality and digitization. Drawing methodologies from the fields of ethnography, media studies and design studies, we aim to develop an interdisciplinary approach which critically explores the…
National Narratives in the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the Athens 2004 Olympic Games
By focusing on the cases of the Athens 2004 Olympic ceremonies, this article interrogates insular representations of the nation that are commonly nurtured by Olympic narratives. In particular, the article discusses the ways in which the Athens 2004 ceremonies articulated aspects of history, topography, and constituency in relation with Greece’s present as well as with its past. By also locating instances that contest the perception of national id…
The Tôkaidô Road
The Tôkaidô Road offers a comparative study of the Tôkaidô road's representations during the Edo (1600-1868) and Meiji (1868-1912) eras. Throughout the Edo era, the Tôkaidô highway was the most important route of Japan and transportation was confined to foot travel. In 1889, the Tôkaidô Railway was established, at first paralleling and eventually almost eliminating the use of the highway. During both periods, the Tôkaidô was a popular topic of re…
