When quarantine was lifted in October 2020, the unprecedented protest violence and destruction resumed with the destruction by fire of two historic churches to mark the first anniversary of the Crisis. The Chilean October Crisis was initiated on 18 October 2019 with the simultaneous attack by protesters on 20 metro stations and their city wide looting, arson and vandalism of built heritage. This form of extortion rapidly spread to 11 of Chile's 15 regions. Ground Zero was established by this violence early in the crisis. </span></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzRpZQOQUQAUoAH7iJ8jZQKQuz4KkBUFL2aCeQzi1J3cz09s5THRM-gty1Z448f4OmCV9hwYgVsXZsuMUbmNpB9OEmvDt8uZNI5t5fzEXYFpoEMeK5x3HGnRVPKvHIhVjyjdYs/s719/Civil+Disobedience+18+October+site+map+of+metro.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="658" data-original-width="719" height="586" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzRpZQOQUQAUoAH7iJ8jZQKQuz4KkBUFL2aCeQzi1J3cz09s5THRM-gty1Z448f4OmCV9hwYgVsXZsuMUbmNpB9OEmvDt8uZNI5t5fzEXYFpoEMeK5x3HGnRVPKvHIhVjyjdYs/w640-h586/Civil+Disobedience+18+October+site+map+of+metro.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><p>In all, 18 buildings were set on fire in Ground Zero, a soccer field size area of pavement was smashed up with hammers and crowbars by protesters to make missiles to throw at police and every piece of pedestrian urban infrastrcucture and street lighting was destroyed, every vertical surface covered in graffiti and every public monument defaced.

On 12 November, 2019 the Veracruz church (1857) was attack by protesters who set ablaze the wooden doors with accelerant, and the bell tower roof and interior were severely damaged by fire. On January 4, 2020, 1000 hooded protesters attacked 100 police defending the San Francisco de Borja church (1876) and the Police Monument 1989) and, now banded from using non-lethal responses, surrendered the church to rioting vandals. This church was destroyed by hooded protesters and fire on October 18, 2020. By the end of November 2019, the cost of material damage to the axes running east and west of Ground Zero was 106 million USD, not including the damage to the Metro. <p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7enu1EsZCPiqLc_an1CzBiS7HPjhl3tispH4YE4C0g8avd5fuoxaHZOoSnN7o6QRgdUxMI4PYbrhxSY8UBTvFJRitBd3ubFO9BEwuHp7m63i8Lr9M-uhY5Cl15-gqAHpEzQFW/s1644/Battle+plan+and+total+destruction.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1195" data-original-width="1644" height="466" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7enu1EsZCPiqLc_an1CzBiS7HPjhl3tispH4YE4C0g8avd5fuoxaHZOoSnN7o6QRgdUxMI4PYbrhxSY8UBTvFJRitBd3ubFO9BEwuHp7m63i8Lr9M-uhY5Cl15-gqAHpEzQFW/w640-h466/Battle+plan+and+total+destruction.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>This walking heritage/cultural tour is a modified version of the tour that Anthony McInneny prepared and delivered for the resident organisation El Barrio Que Queremos (the Barrio We Want) for theNational Heritage Week in May 2019. He has since resigned from that organisation because of their lack of advocacy for the protection of the barrio's built heritage. Prior to the October Crisis, Barrio Lastarria was a national and international tourist destination for its built heritage, living barrio life and integration of arts and culture into the built environment. Post Chilean October Crisis 2019-2021 and all built and cultural heritage had been defaced or destroyed by protesters. Most is now covered in thick coat of nuetral paint though the welded metal protection is still in place. This tour follows the chronolgy of protester destruction to revisit the hertiage of Ground Zero, past and future. We start where the vandals started with the Metro and end where these criminals have permantly reshaped public life, public space and Chilean Heritage- Plaza Baquedano - where the monument to General Manuel Baquedano was removed by the National Council of Monuments in March 2021 to protect it from protester violence and destruction. <p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgALurMhdE2kRhnKVS9wAfkRus0AbZ4PRnouX6iyNOVYFYxVVycy1LNjnCNpMdFA_Xhyphenhyphen2DS7p3VTcpWTKKuT4dbZ1Y7bsTmsjfL-f6Zrva-t125F-6z0eMma6T4ovBSC5Ao9Wpl/s1627/first+image.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="718" data-original-width="1627" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgALurMhdE2kRhnKVS9wAfkRus0AbZ4PRnouX6iyNOVYFYxVVycy1LNjnCNpMdFA_Xhyphenhyphen2DS7p3VTcpWTKKuT4dbZ1Y7bsTmsjfL-f6Zrva-t125F-6z0eMma6T4ovBSC5Ao9Wpl/w640-h282/first+image.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><br /></div><br />Anthony McInnenyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05326176124311739905noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15379158.post-5380389228504183182020-12-23T02:50:00.010+11:002021-03-19T10:29:40.291+11:00Ideological Critique<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGc0DC8ANbmJlinIItHhMuCvUeF3zDvsOjh_EUq80K_vF14wGSRFmAZ78YUSHC2fSeNiKbyQsSRD3ElhPh2A7A7U5HDqC0m6Z8UYrc8UR787vjtc0wjCTmbu7gipYYMF5l_C4T/s2048/Ethical+circle.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1786" data-original-width="2048" height="558" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGc0DC8ANbmJlinIItHhMuCvUeF3zDvsOjh_EUq80K_vF14wGSRFmAZ78YUSHC2fSeNiKbyQsSRD3ElhPh2A7A7U5HDqC0m6Z8UYrc8UR787vjtc0wjCTmbu7gipYYMF5l_C4T/w640-h558/Ethical+circle.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><i>AFP was cited in this international conference as belonging in the lower right quadrant - highly ethical yet not influential.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Climate change and climate crisis can already be observed with rapidly melting glaciers, a rising average global temperature, and increasingly frequent and extreme weather patterns resulting in biodiversity loss and breakdown. While these environmental changes are damaging and irreversible, there are still things we can and must do now. People in the built environment professions are invited to be exemplars of positive change, become active in transforming industry thinking, education and practice, and become a part of a critical mass to regenerate and permanently repair this Earth. We must affect policy, rethink the design of our homes, suburbs, cities, lifestyles, habits and care for the natural environment.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Join us for a special screening of <i><b>Taskafa: Stories of the Street</b></i>, a film by London artist and documentary maker Andrea Luka Zimmerman.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">The film is an artist’s essay about memory and the most necessary forms of belonging, both to a place and to history. It explores the relationship between Istanbul’s street dogs and the city's human populations. </span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">For us, this film raises many important ideas about the right to the city, the value of non-human urban populations, community action/resilience and contested public spaces.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the night, we will hear from guest speakers and invite discussion on the variety of urban narratives that create cities, neighbourhoods and streets. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">On 6th October 2018, Architects for Peace celebrated its 15th anniversary by hosting 'Building Democratic Cities' at the Queensbridge Square.<br /><br />This day-long event provided us the opportunity to collaborate with other urban activists and practitioners and venture into the public space to meet and engage with the general public and built environment community. The free-to-public activities responded to the theme of Democratic Cities and we were privileged to be joined by other practices and experts who together offered a range of interactive activities throughout the day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Munir Vahanvati from Giant Grass shared his vast knowledge on bamboo constructions and facilitated a bamboo installation. With Munir’s guidance, the public was invited to freely contribute to the installation with AFP volunteers using the bamboo poles harvested by our volunteers during a fascinating trip arranged by Munir. Many people participated in this transforming sculpture.<br /><br />Public Assembly's colourful van also attracted attention from people of all ages. Inside the specially fitted van, Lynda Roberts held thoughtful and creative conversations with visitors. Outside, Ceri Hann encouraged everyone to add their creative strokes on the pavement using simply water and sponged sticks.<br /><br />As an extension to our public talks and campaign against the Apple Store at the Federation Square, Tania Davidge and Shelley Freeman hosted a walking tour between Queensbridge Square and Federation Square.<br /><br />Tania and Munir later joined Tanja Beer and Andrea Cooke as speakers at the public discussions. Each speaker provided lively and informative presentations on their projects designed to empower communities or to promote democratic discussions. This took place inside our display marquee, with an exhibition of posters curated by Nicole Mecharoff and Farah Rozhan from AFP which showcased the works of AFP, each of our participants mentioned above, as well as Visionary Design Development and STREAT.<br /><br />To further encourage active public participations, volunteer Lara Brown led community rope jumps which was popular with with people of all ages and abilities.<br /><br />Many volunteers dedicated countless hours to this successful event but special thanks must be given to Pauline, Nicole, Yang and Lorenza. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Architects for Peace team would like to thank everyone who dropped by and supported Building Democratic Cities on October 6th. There were many familiar and new faces, curious of the playful and thought-provoking activities at the Red Stair Amphitheatre.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">On the day there were opportunities to have creative discussions, connect with others and play games, skip, tour the city with someone you have never met, learn about another building tradition and laugh with friends.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We hope these experiences sparked new feelings of enjoyment, relaxation and inner peace!</span><br />

<span style="text-align: left;">Architects for Peace will hold a three-part talk series to explore the future of public realm design in Melbourne. Public space in Melbourne doesn't always offer a universal freedom of use, especially as local governments are entering into public-private partnerships. What does this mean for spaces that are the heart of our urban communities? How can the planning and design of public spaces better align with citizen's cultural and civic values and needs?</span></div>

<br />
We heard from Darren Sharp (Social Surplus), Yvonne Meng (Circle Studio Architects) and Michael Smith (Atelier Red Black) on grassroots and citizen-led solutions for shared public assets, ways in which to understand social and regulatory territories in the development of public and private interfaces in urban spaces and, the economic and political considerations that "invest in our community" and shape the sense of local and national place identity.<br />
<br />
Thank you to our three guest speakers for an engaging and informative talk.<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #4b4f56; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">How can urban planning, architecture and public art intervention help to slow down the pace of our urban lives and in turn improve city design? How can we respectfully preserve and cultivate Melbourne’s urban culture? What types of local knowledge, practice and design ideologies are valuable in creating inclusive, resilient and healthy communities? Who should be involved in shaping the slow city?</span><br />

Join them as they lead this talk about the history and importance of democratic public spaces in urban environments, examining the necessity of places that are free and open to all members of the public and how such spaces foster a sense of community—critical for the reason that humans are said to be making fewer real life connections. Looking at relevant examples from Melbourne and around the world, this invigorating discussion will delve deeply into contemporary challenges of public spaces.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;">Speakers include architect, urban designer and Architects for Peace founder, Beatriz Maturana Cossio; professor of architecture and urban design at the University of Melbourne, Kim Dovey; architect, design tutor and researcher Peter Raisbeck; and moderator Lara Brown—architecture and urban design writer, and former senior editor of Chicago Architect magazine.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;">See you at MPavilion!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #666a73; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px;">For more information visit </span><a href="http://mpavilion.org/program/power-to-the-people-the-importance-of-democratic-public-spaces/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" style="background-color: white; color: #007f8c; font-family: "Benton Sans", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.5px; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank"><span style="padding-top: 0px;">http://mpavilion.org/</span><span class="word_break"></span>program/<span class="word_break"></span>power-to-the-people-the-imp<span class="word_break"></span>ortance-of-democratic-publ<span class="word_break"></span>ic-spaces/</a>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15607258692786597120noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15379158.post-68008473154054775542017-10-24T22:49:00.000+11:002017-10-27T07:49:03.616+11:00Ethical Cities Lecture<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Global urbanisation is predicted to reach 70% by 2050,
meaning 3 billion more people will relocate to cities seeking a place to live a
better life. How will our cities respond to such a challenge?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cities are complex realities -- a mix of materials, infrastructures,
technologies and people held together by intricate dynamics. The trend over the
last decade saw wealth and power gathered in the hands of the 1% of the global
population, giving rise to inequalities reflected in the way our cities
developed.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As more people flock to cities, the problems of modern
urbanization increase. We must tackle issues such as lack of accountability and
transparency in governance, scarce citizen engagement, environmental
sustainability and climate change, and the housing affordability crisis.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
How do we ensure a future where democracy and diversity
foster social inclusion and equality for all? How can we improve our cities so
that they are truly liveable, smart and resilient, accommodating diverse
populations with differing needs?<o:p></o:p></div>

Join us for a lecture on Ethical Cities and find out how we
can reconcile private, political and economic agendas in order to redefine our
shared future in the urban age.<o:p></o:p></div>

Amid the frenzied discussion of affordability, monetary value tends to steal the limelight, with other kinds of value easily sidelined. Can the design of individual housing projects contribute to a better-built, community-driven and fairer city? Or is the real design question a much bigger one, for which we need to look system-wide?</span><br />

Architects for Peace is holding an information session and workshop to discuss current project activity and, to seek out further projects that will continue to build on the vision, mission and values of the organization and it's <b>Strategic Plan (Spring 2014 to Spring 2018)</b>. This public session presents opportunities to learn about the organization's history and current values, invites multi-disciplinary discussion about projects that aim to address spatial and social justice issues in our urban and natural environments, and, will explore what inspires us - as built environment professionals - to 'make change' while we are identifying with a number of social injustices, conflicts and barriers that limit access to freedom of speech.</div>

These stories illustrate the search and fight for freedom, peace and the universal right to a home, in it’s most human definition.</span><br />

<strong style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">Dr Julie Rudner </strong><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica neue" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">is a senior lecturer in the Community Planning and Development Program, La Trobe University, Bendigo. Her ambition is to shift current ‘risk culture’ and worse case scenario thinking so uncertainty and possible danger is viewed as a challenge and learning opportunity. Through research, consulting and teaching, Julie explores the gap between policy and everyday life, with a particular focus on children's, young people's and migrants’ use, views and experience of their environments. Her main interest is how we create a ‘public knowing’ of risk that limits people’s freedom to use public space independently and seeks to support active citizenship through community participation in planning. Julie has over 10 years professional experience as a planner and consultant.</span><br />
