PUI Podcast

The Platform for Urban Investigation (PUI) is an open environment collaboration involving architects, choreographers, dancers, designers, artists, educators, curators and all other cultural producers. It's aim is to stimulate fresh ways of looking at urban living and discover alternative solutions for cultural development. The platform takes up residence in cities around the world for four weeks at a time working with locally and remotely connected participants and produces new cross-disciplinary output. The Platform for Urban Investigation Is currently having a residency in Mexico, where it will take the shape of MAPS (Map Applied Psycho-geographical Systems). These projects are (re-) interpretations of Mexico City and the way we live; experience our daily routines, conflicts and challenges, as well as how we navigate the incredible urban landscape. Results of the work will be shown in an exhibition in the Museo Ciudad de Mexico in February / March 2008. This podcast represents the first brainstormsessions of the project.
