Incubators of Public Spaces

在整个欧洲，根据个人自身利益和战略规划的结合，城市地区正在发展和再生。这些都是善意的，但结果是不可预测的。个别令人满意的开发和干预措施的倍增可能仍然是整体上次优的，就像城市蔓延的情况一样，这是现代社会的一种强有力的空间表达。在这个复杂的时代，参与式规划在理论上得到了讨论，但在实践中只有部分实现，因为它可能缺乏利用分布式决策的全部潜力的实用工具。人们被视为作为参与者积极参与系统，因此可以将他们的大量知识和专业知识贡献给学位创造系统。孵化器致力于如何利用新技术的可能性，并将它们整合到多层次规划系统中，以帮助地方自我组织中的分布式决策。该项目通过将独特的城市共同创造软件与电子参与式参与应用程序和众筹工具联系起来，推动这些挑战，使共同创造成为由人们创造和为人们创造的公共场所。通过这种方式，公共空间从空旷的空间转变为真正的社会互动环境，然后不仅由包含公共空间的建筑定义，还将由居住在其中的人的行为定义。公共空间的孵化器提供了将人们与场所和空间创造重新联系起来的手段。一个地方是空间形式的整合，既有建筑的，也有开放的，这有利于人们在居住在这些空间时的互动。在孵化器里，你可以上网或参加公开会议，用清晰简单的3D空间模型轻松塑造你自己的地方场景-就像你期望的那样：飞来飞去，四处走动，探索和做出改变。然后，众筹场景，提供你的支持，像在网上买书一样享受改造城市的乐趣。该项目将结合创新的设计软件、通信软件和促进“众包”和“众筹”的软件--让市民互动地参与到公共空间的设计中来。该项目是一项应用研究的练习，允许进行现场实验和测试，结果可能会影响相关城市的公共空间设计。该项目还将包括对现场应用的批判性解释，对促进社会科学和城市理论的发展以及对未来设计和规划的应用具有影响。

Across Europe, urban areas are growing and regenerating themselves according to a combination of individual self-interest and strategic planning. These are well-intentioned but the results are unpredictable. The multiplication of individually satisfactory developments and interventions may still be collectively sub-optimal, as seen in the case of urban sprawl, which is a potent spatial expression of modern society. In this age of complexity, participatory planning has been discussed in theory but only partly realised in practice, as it can lack the practical tools to harness the full potential of distributed decision-making. People are seen as being actively engaged in systems as participants, and as a consequence can contribute their considerable knowledge and expertise to systems of placemaking.Incubators address ways to harness the new technological possibilities and integrate them within multi-level planning systems to assist distributed decision-making in the self-organisation of places. The Project advances these challenges by linking a unique urban co-creative software, to e-participatory engagement applications and crowdfunding tools, involving co-creation in the making of public places by and for people. In this way, public spaces are transformed from empty spaces into a real context for social interaction, and would then become defined not only by the architecture that contains them, but also by the actions of the people that inhabit them.The Incubators of Public Places provide the means to reconnect people with places and placemaking. What makes a place is the integration of spatial forms, built and open, that favours the interactions of people as they inhabit those spaces. In an Incubator, you can go online or join a public meeting, to shape easily your own scenario for the place, with clear and simple 3D models of spaces - as you would expect to be: flying through and walking around, exploring and making changes. Then, crowdfund the scenario, to provide your support, revamping the city as enjoyably as buying a book online.The project will bring together innovative design software, communication software and software for facilitating 'crowdsourcing' and 'crowdfunding'- allowing citizens to be involved in the design of their public spaces interactively. The project is an exercise in applied research and allows 'live' experimentation and testing, with outcomes that can influence the design of public spaces in the cities involved. The project will also include a critical interpretation of the on-site applications, with implications for advancing social science and urban theory as well as application for future design and planning.
