SPACE HACKS

Img—1 A+P+B Presentation Image
Img2,3—Unpleasant design hacks

Motivated by the presentation made by the other groups, more concretely Artemis, Paloma and Bi's presentation. I've decided to explore more about the space hacks in the city. I also focused on the design made by/for the minorities. As they have shown in the presentation, (image 1) we can sometimes see that intrinsic to the cities we have habits documented or if you may, we have footprints left by the ones o inhabit them. We may see traces of how they have adapted and how the city adapted to them also in some kind of a two-way fight.

Img—4 Urine Deflector

While in a meeting of all XPUB 1 students we have approach different hacks to space and mentioned unpleasant design as one strategy found to cope with homeless people (image 2—3) or even, for example, the creation of Urine Deflectors around the cities (image 4)

It is interesting how this also gave a place for critique and artists like Sarah Ross have created solutions to battle this intent to change our public spaces and how we use them. (image 5)

Mário uses the design critique to analyze his unthinking and contemporary culture, similar to the best tradition of literary criticism and art criticism. With several incursions into literature, politics, history, geography and cinema, the author disassembles the discursive heritage of design and demonstrates how it is formed and reformed by concepts such as race, class, genre, authorship and periphery, among others. in, https://www.orfeunegro.org/products/o-design-que-o-design-nao-ve, Orfeão Negro Publisher.
