Welcome to our second week of the Digital Tottenham Pavilion Conversations: the urban intervention, my name is Federica Zambeletti, founder of the digital platform KooZA/rch and today I will be co-hosting this talk with Joe Wright of the Tottenham Pavilion team. Nowadays, we are experiencing a proliferation of urban interventions, from the design and architecture industry to activists and citizens. The advent of these installations within our urban context provide for an experimental medium which allows us to engage and challenge the city and its spaces. By breaking the fabric of the latter, these devices propose alternative lenses through which we can reconsider and redefine the way we approach and inhabit public space. We have the pleasure of discussing the topic with the architects Tomaso Boano & Jonas Prismontas and Claire Richards. Boano Prismontas is a London based architecture studio who has extensively articulated a series of temporary projects within public spaces both in the UK and abroad. Claire is the founder and director of Footwork Architects, a non-profit organisation, working to help create thriving communities and ensure clear social principles underpin development within the built environment. Claire is also patron of the London Festival of Architecture and a judge for Tottenham Pavilion. Good afternoon and thank you for joining us today
