.@rose_kala_dias here wrapping up. I wanted to mention RESEARCH. it can be a scary word right? BUT this programme has changed how I feel. I've been able to follow my gut + ask questions to elicit 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 Image
My #digitalplacemaking research= qualitative data on the themes + 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 at play in creating digital spaces which centre care for bipoc... It is more than stories and data though, it is a connected web of relationships developing a momentum around these ideas
𝗦𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗜'𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶 𝗽𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 #𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀𝗼𝗳𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 feat. stories, thoughts + feelings exploring the intersections of rest, race, culture, disability, labour + politics as part of my #digitalplacemaking research 😍 Image
Hopefully this takeover has given you a taster of some of the themes I'll be speaking to in our live #digitalplacemaking talk on Fri 25 Sept at 13.00 w/ @StephenHilton + @City_ID's Mike Rawlinson

Thank you so much Paul @UGuests it's been amazing to follow your thinking, insights, research and history on placemaking today.

This is @Grace_Quantock and I'm delighted to take up the baton for the final relay on the #DigitalPlacemaking fellows Twitter takeover
#GoodAfternoonDearOnes
Today, I wish us courage tempered with compassion. We can get drunk on courage when bravery tips into bravado. May our strength be consort with softness, as needed. Onwards, together.

(I start each day @Grace_Quantock w/ a blessing, so I'm offering this)

On my Fellowship, I've been asking whether science-fiction storytelling and Augmented Reality (AR) can inspire people to imagine preferable, more inclusive futures for their places together?
Can interactive performance methods engage a wider range of people in discussing plans for their neighbourhoods, and are these conversations more effective in the sites that are being developed?
I was interested in whether places can be critiqued through located science-fiction storytelling, how the distancing effect of sci-fi relates to AR, and ways in which @UGuests & @_dspk's Billennium models a participatory and democratised approach to urban design.

Taking up the Tweeting baton from @shawnsobers. As he was DJing yesterday, thought I’d start with a morning music suggestion, something appropriately sci-fi from Patten, which he recorded during lockdown:
Early in my research, I was reading Patten's publication, 3049, which accompanied an exhibition at London’s Tenderpixel. They say, 'It sets the stage for a non-dystopic reimagining of a positive collective future, asking; "how do we make it to 3049?": issuu.com/555-5555/docs/…
I’m Paul Clarke and, on my #DigitalPlacemaking Fellowship, I've been exploring tools for better future-making, asking who gets included in processes of neighbourhood visioning and in the futures imagined.

Greetings! This is @shawnsobers picking up the reigns from @tim_lytc for this Twitter Takeover for the Digital Placemaking research project. Tim gave us lots to think about, and I hope I can do this justice and post some interesting stuff for the rest of the afternoon. Image
First.... a song. This came out in 1982, and was one of the first songs with a social commentary that I really took notice of. I'll explain more after you have a listen....enjoy!

Songs like this continue to influence what I do and how I do it, somehow trying to make my work connected to real world issues and communities.

Hello world! It’s @tim_lytc checking in for the morning. I’m a NEW TALENT Fellow on the programme. I’m a Queer dance creative working across theatre, film and creative tech. My work is centred on advocating for gender, health, race and Queer issues.
My #digitalplacemaking research looks at the potentials of combining #Dance & Movement with #CreativeTechnology to create safer spaces for #Queer folks. Check out my page for a little taste of what I've done✨

At the beginning, I was inspired by past work I had done with @LiminaImmersive @SplashAndRipple @lisamaythomas And their approach to bodies and technology - The conscious effort to create comfortable, inclusive spaces, where audiences could escape and connect at the same time.

If you've just tuned in, it's @rose_kala_dias on a takeover hype (first time, can you tell!? #takeupspace)... here is a thread of some of the spaces/places/thinkers/artists/collectives that have been inspiring me in my #digitalplacemaking #spacesofcare thinking...
@rose_kala_dias There's A LOT of amazing work out there facilitating radical ideas into action - linking rest, care, social justice, collective and individual practices, also just on EXISTING for those experiencing marginalisation, including #BlackPowerNaps / @TheNapMinistry / @thellpsx ❤️
@rose_kala_dias @TheNapMinistry @thellpsx Who remembers this in @ArnolfiniArts front room? comfort, genitalia + radical literature 😍#bringbackthefrontroom #fluffyplacemaking 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙖 𝙙𝙞𝙜𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙡 / 𝙝𝙮𝙗𝙧𝙞𝙙 𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠 +𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚?
