Art precincts and cultural participation in networked public space

本项目旨在研究公共文化与公共空间之间不断变化的关系。当代城市的文化活动日益网络化和街头化，表现为利用城市作为大众参与艺术的舞台，这对文化参与的主导模式提出了挑战，这种模式侧重于位于指定艺术区的文化机构内的活动。该项目将开发数据收集工具，以反映这一转变。预计分析将有助于评估澳大利亚城市的文化政策设置和设计发展。

This project aims to examine the changing relation between public culture and public space. Cultural activity in the contemporary city is increasingly networked and street-based, manifest in events that use the city as a stage for mass participation in art. This challenges the dominant model of cultural engagement that focuses on activities within cultural institutions located in designated arts precincts. This project will develop tools for data gathering to map this shift. The analysis is expected to contribute to the evaluation of cultural policy settings and design developments in Australian cities.
