Our speaker is Deyan Sudjic who is the former director of the Design Museum in London and the author of the book the Language of Cities.

I want to learn from Deyan why its important that cities give you freedom with its anonymity and how that differs from village life. Deyan will re-examine some of Jane Jacobs insights on city life in the present day, and he will evaluate the success and failure of rejuvenating former industrial sites in urban environments.

After Deyan speaks, we are going to raid the What Happens Next archive and hear excerpts from previous episodes on the topics of urbanization.
