Hello,
I'm a French student, I'm studying design in university of Saint Etienne (perhaps you know "la cité du design" in this city ?)
I've just realized that my poject of Master is near your project My city = My body, but I don't work with DNA, I work with perfumes : they produce interactions with people and urban environment by the air.
I'm very interesting by your vision of the city, particularly with "these micro-macro scales in an urban context, it looks at how a city is made up by our everyday practices rather than buildings or streets. We are co-producers of our cities, resulting in not one but many cities, each refracting and reflecting one another. That has its consequences for cities as a political space and the way we design or intervene in these spaces."
What are your references please ? Because I feel it but I can't explain it in my project without references : I don't find this sort of vision in books of urbanism now (in France), this vision of space is near the birth of urbanism. What do you think about it?
(I'm sorry for by bad English, I understand it very well but my use it too poor.)
