Michael Bears’s comics are poetic maps of DAAR’s networks and origin of projects. Michaels Bears recreated the complex set of formal and informal relations formed around every project. It shows the nomadic and open form of DAAR’s art and architectural production and how its embody or oppose to the surrounding political environment. As for a map, Michael’s drawings are a synthetic view and interpretation of the reality, it is not the reality. Nevertheless they suggests the experimental form of production of DAAR and its human geography formed around every project, faces of architects, artists, researchers, activists, lawyers, colonizers, students, soldiers, politicians, that shaped consciously or unconsciously DAAR spatial interventions and political propositions.

TEDxRamallah brings together 20+ inspiring individuals on stage, from Speakers, Performers and Stage Hosts from within Palestine and beyond from at least 10 different disciplines that collectively will enlighten us with inspirational stories of Palestine.
TEDxRamallah aims to showcase inspiring stories of Palestine. It also aims to educate and inspire by providing a space for people to share their ideas in any field, whether science, education, literature, technology, design, etc. to contribute to the positive perception of Palestine.
TEDxRamallah is a one day event that will take place in three venues in three cities: Convention Palace in Bethlehem, Sunflower Theatre in Beirut, and in a venue in Amman. The partner cities (Beirut and Amman) support Palestine, a place with limited access, by getting people who cannot be part of the event in Bethlehem closer to the live experience. The TEDxRamallah program will have a majority of speakers speaking live from the Convention Palace, while those speakers who cannot access Palestine will speak from the partner cities and will be streamed into Bethlehem.

Come è possibile, nel “qui e ora” del conflitto, negoziare l’esistenza di istituzioni e di realtà legali e spaziali senza divenire connivente con la realtà diseguale che queste producono? Decolonizing Architecture è un modo per parlare e intervenire diversamente in un conflitto che cerca di sfruttare la pratica spaziale come una forma di intervento politico e narrazione.

Un incontro con Diego Segatto (architetto / OpenQuadra), Adriano Zamperini (psicologo sociale / Università di Padova), Marialuisa Menegatto (psicologa clinica e di comunità / Università di Padova).
Dal contributo di Diego Segatto per The Wall #3 (un progetto di Pietro Gaglianò).
