Dear All:
We would like to invite you to participate in the first public workshop
organised by CRIT (Collective Research Initiatives Trust) in
collaboration with SARAI on THURSDAY 28 DECEMBER and FRIDAY 29 DECEMBER
2006 in Mumbai. This workshop is called "Metrolog(ue): Discussions on
Emerging Urbanism". For detailed information on workshop and areas of
discussion, please see our website on http://www.metrologue.net
CRIT (Collective Research Initiatives Trust) is a group of architects,
researchers, technicians and artists who have worked together for
several years in Mumbai. Our collective was established with the aim of
undertaking research, pedagogy and intervention on urban spaces and
contemporary cultural practices in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. For
more information, see http://www.crit.org.in
In the workshop on 28-29 December, we have identified six broad areas of
discussion, dealing with issues of emerging urban morphologies; the
politics of occupancy, land and tenure; new civil society organisations;
urban peripheries and fringe areas of the metropolis; the new
entrepreneurship; and practices of mapping, archiving and publishing.
These areas comprise the six sessions of the workshop. The last session
will summarise and conceptualise the workshop.
We look forward to you joining us. Kindly RSVP to metrologue at crit.org.in
