City scenarios as a theater play
DAC – Dwellers in Agile Cities was a research consortium funded by the Academy of Finland Strategic Research Council for the years 2016-2019. The sub-projects focused on sustainable urban development: Mapping the future mega-trends and weak signals of future urbanization, Carrying out action research within socially diverse and ecologically sustainable solutions, Scrutinizing the variety of urban interaction as a platform for robust urbanization, and Creating spatial examples of innovative and flexible housing and living. In a sub-project of creating roadmap to agile cities, four qualitative scenarios were built. Based on scenarios, arts-based methods were utilized to create narrative performance presenting scenarios in a form of 20 minutes theatre play. It has been performed in various seminars and conferences.
