Announcement: Launch of the Urban Surfaces Research Network
We have established a research network on urban surfaces!
Sabina Andron, Kostas Avramidis, Tom Ward have been meeting monthly since April 2023 to make this happen and we are now ready to announce the first activity of the Urban Surfaces Research Network (USRN), an online workshop with some of the best researchers in the field.
This first workshop is not public - but more projects are in the making and we are keen to hear about your work if it deals with walls and surfaces.
The USRN brings together researchers, practitioners, and policy makers, to examine the roles and uses of urban surfaces, and their contribution to the formation of urban cultures, politics, and atmospheres. It is a multidisciplinary group with contributions from sociology, geography, architecture, communication, media, and visual and material studies.
