Moving forward with installation plans for “Today is Tomorrow: The Future of Colle”
Yesterday we had a very productive session with our fantastic group of student participants working alongside our Project Fellow Wafa Hourani to map out the different parts of our collaborative installation “Today is Tomorrow: The Future of Colle”. Everyone is now finalizing their plans for their individual contributions to this collective work, envisioning how the local cityscape could be transformed in the future. Students are thinking about what the future results of current dynamics might be such as embracing multiculturalism in the face of increasing immigration, innovative archives allowing more people to access the heritage and resources of the area, and heightened awareness for the need of energy efficiency and urban gardening to respond to the pace of climate change. Full speed ahead!
