== Introduction ==
The June 19-29, 2016 intensive program/workshop will give online seminar participants the opportunity to apply theory and methods to a real case study, the New Town of Zingonia, in Northern Italy.
During the Zingonia workshop participants will use some of the theories and tools investigated in the online seminar to analyze the complex landscape of the New Town, its challenges with regard to landscape democracy and identify possible solutions. In partnership with local stakeholders (associations, schools, administrative boards…), students enrolled in the intensive workshop will draw attention to places where specific strategies can be activated to improve livability, democracy, identity and long term resilience.

For further information on the Zingonia case you may listen to an online lecture given by Dr. Deni Ruggeri (NMBU Norway) on November 17, 2015:

== Why Zingonia? ==
Zingonia is a paradigmatic case study for the discussion on landscape and democracy. Its multicultural community, its Modernist physical environments and its unique governance and long term resilience challenges will require students to develop and test here strategies and representation methodologies which may be applicable to other similar contexts. The scheme below lists the main themes or layers which the participants will focus on. The second column specifies critical issues connected to each theme.

=== Social layer - Zingonia, the New Town ===
All inhabitants are 'immigrants' - we find a multitude of communities. Each citizen belongs to many communities, and each community occupies a physical landscape.
*What is the “space-LANDSCAPE?” of each community?
*Where is each community’s identity center, its sacred space?
*Which kind of geography emerges from the representation of these spaces and centers?

We will consider which community is located where. They may reside in different places within a city which was not previously considered.
We will learn how to map existing and strategically locate new community spaces.

=== Historical layer - Zingonia is a 50 year-old New Town ===
*What is the relationship between the city and its history?
*How can the landscape of a New Town represent a community’s history, social memories and traditions?
*What is the relationship between citizens and collective memory?

We will consider the landscape as a place to narrate the evolution of a community.

=== Aesthetic layer - Zingonia’s original plan was not the result of a 'participatory' process===
Nevertheless, Zingonia presents a recognizable form.
*What does Zingonia say about the role of designers and planners as experts and how should design and planning decision be made?
*Is there a connection between democracy and the quality of urban design? The fresco of Buon Governo in Siena (Lorenzetti, 1338) introduces this parallelism as a certainty. Thinking about landscape democracy in contemporary cities requires challenging old assumptions.
*Is there a democratic landscape aesthetic for contemporary cities?
*Is Democracy 'visible'?

=== Economic layer - From a Zingonia 'city of the italian miracle' to Zingonia, the post-industrial community ===
Changes in system of industrial production challenge designers and planners to redesign or re-purpose industrial areas and their infrastructure to support new uses.
* What is the role of citizens in this process of conversion/re-envisioning?

===Identity layer - Connection and disconnection of a community to its real/virtual image===
While the virtual world may help a democracy by giving voices to non-dominant images of the city, we need to become aware of the limitations that the virtual layer can create in the relationship between citizens and a physical space.
*What is the role the landscape of Zingonia plays as a structuring element of its identity (identities)?
*What is the relationship between real and virtual landscapes?
*Which tools do citizens of today have to represent their community and envision its future identity?

== Interactions ==
Zingonia is a town where a process of regeneration is taking place. A number of residents, companies, associations and institutions have begun to collaborate with local and foreign partners to develop new visions for the future. Universities have already intervened in this process with a project of urban analysis particularly dedicated and realized in collaboration with local school students.

This program has been useful to identify communities and stakeholders such as:

'''Institutions:'''
*5 municipalities;
*one local public school
*the local Catholic Parish
'''Associations:'''
*Senegalese Association
*“Orti Sociali” [community gardens] association
'''Groups:'''
*Citizens
*The “Quelli della Zingonia” facebook group

The workshop would like to interact with these stakeholders, trying to build relationships among different subjects and contributing to the development of a common new design.

'''Stakeholders' specific profiles suggest a few themes:'''
* production and economy
* urban farming, ecology, nature
* housing, co-housing and dwelling
* public spaces, infrastructures
* cultural, community building processes, school.

== Synthesis ==

*The results of these investigations will most definitely demand new forms of representation and mapping in order to capture the non-physical attributes of the landscape.
*Each layer produces a different representation of the same physical space. By overlapping all graphics and maps, it will perhaps be possible to recognize special spaces as 'social condenser': places, and phenomena, which could be challenging in order to emphasize processes for a democratic participation in planning and urban management.
*The workshop will combine lectures by project partners, invited scholars/researchers, interdisciplinary team-work and interactions with citizens and stakeholders.
*After this analysis, workshop participants will draft a new vision for various areas in the New Town, a strategic plan, which will nurture and allow such spaces to continue and grow within the city, developed in partnership with locals (administrators, stakeholders, focus groups etc.)

During the Zingonia workshop participants will use some of the theories and tools investigated in the online seminar to analyze the complex landscape of the New Town, its challenges with regard to landscape democracy and identify possible solutions. In partnership with local stakeholders (associations, schools, administrative boards…), students enrolled in the intensive workshop will draw attention to places where specific strategies can be activated to improve livability, democracy, identity and long term resilience.

For further information on the Zingonia case you may listen to an online lecture given by Dr. Deni Ruggeri (NMBU Norway) on November 17, 2015:

== Why Zingonia? ==
Zingonia is a paradigmatic case study for the discussion on landscape and democracy. Its multicultural community, its Modernist physical environments and its unique governance and long term resilience challenges will require students to develop and test here strategies and representation methodologies which may be applicable to other similar contexts. The scheme below lists the main themes or layers which the participants will focus on. The second column specifies critical issues connected to each theme.

=== Social layer - Zingonia, the New Town ===
All inhabitants are 'immigrants' - we find a multitude of communities. Each citizen belongs to many communities, and each community occupies a physical landscape.
*What is the “space-LANDSCAPE?” of each community?
*Where is each community’s identity center, its sacred space?
*Which kind of geography emerges from the representation of these spaces and centers?

We will consider which community is located where. They may reside in different places within a city which was not previously considered.
We will learn how to map existing and strategically locate new community spaces.

=== Historical layer - Zingonia is a 50 year-old New Town ===
*What is the relationship between the city and its history?
*How can the landscape of a New Town represent a community’s history, social memories and traditions?
*What is the relationship between citizens and collective memory?

We will consider the landscape as a place to narrate the evolution of a community.

=== Aesthetic layer - Zingonia’s original plan was not the result of a 'participatory' process===
Nevertheless, Zingonia presents a recognizable form.
*What does Zingonia say about the role of designers and planners as experts and how should design and planning decision be made?
*Is there a connection between democracy and the quality of urban design? The fresco of Buon Governo in Siena (Lorenzetti, 1338) introduces this parallelism as a certainty. Thinking about landscape democracy in contemporary cities requires challenging old assumptions.
*Is there a democratic landscape aesthetic for contemporary cities?
*Is Democracy 'visible'?

=== Economic layer - From a Zingonia 'city of the italian miracle' to Zingonia, the post-industrial community ===
Changes in system of industrial production challenge designers and planners to redesign or re-purpose industrial areas and their infrastructure to support new uses.
* What is the role of citizens in this process of conversion/re-envisioning?

===Identity layer - Connection and disconnection of a community to its real/virtual image===
While the virtual world may help a democracy by giving voices to non-dominant images of the city, we need to become aware of the limitations that the virtual layer can create in the relationship between citizens and a physical space.
*What is the role the landscape of Zingonia plays as a structuring element of its identity (identities)?
*What is the relationship between real and virtual landscapes?
*Which tools do citizens of today have to represent their community and envision its future identity?

== Interactions ==
Zingonia is a town where a process of regeneration is taking place. A number of residents, companies, associations and institutions have begun to collaborate with local and foreign partners to develop new visions for the future. Universities have already intervened in this process with a project of urban analysis particularly dedicated and realized in collaboration with local school students.

This program has been useful to identify communities and stakeholders such as:

'''Institutions:'''
*5 municipalities;
*one local public school
*the local Catholic Parish
'''Associations:'''
*Senegalese Association
*“Orti Sociali” [community gardens] association
'''Groups:'''
*Citizens
*The “Quelli della Zingonia” facebook group

The workshop would like to interact with these stakeholders, trying to build relationships among different subjects and contributing to the development of a common new design.

'''Stakeholders' specific profiles suggest a few themes:'''
* production and economy
* urban farming, ecology, nature
* housing, co-housing and dwelling
* public spaces, infrastructures
* cultural, community building processes, school.

== Synthesis ==

*The results of these investigations will most definitely demand new forms of representation and mapping in order to capture the non-physical attributes of the landscape.
*Each layer produces a different representation of the same physical space. By overlapping all graphics and maps, it will perhaps be possible to recognize special spaces as 'social condenser': places, and phenomena, which could be challenging in order to emphasize processes for a democratic participation in planning and urban management.
*The workshop will combine lectures by project partners, invited scholars/researchers, interdisciplinary team-work and interactions with citizens and stakeholders.
*After this analysis, workshop participants will draft a new vision for various areas in the New Town, a strategic plan, which will nurture and allow such spaces to continue and grow within the city, developed in partnership with locals (administrators, stakeholders, focus groups etc.)

*How and why did the symbols you identify appear in your landscape?
*Did their meaning change along with socio-political, economic, environmental or cultural changes in your region, or country?
*What do these symbols mean to you today? Are they meaningful to more than just one cultural group? Are they shared across cultures?

</gallery>

=== Reflections ===

In these pictures I have highlight the symbols leaving them colored while the background is black and white.

Arcades: Bologna is made by arcades in fact in the town there are nearly 44 km! This type of construction permit to all the visitors of the city to go everywhere without the problem of the weather. In medieval age they were built to increase the areas of the apartments leaving free the ground level. Today they appear as a characteristic of the streets. Walking under arcades give to the walker a sensation of protection from the car’s road but also give to him the possibility to have a glimpse to what is happening in the near road while his main attention is focused on the shops that are present in a great number in the other side. The arcades are diffused in the entire town, but are particularly present in the center. This network give sensations of continuity, identity and belonging to this particular visual landscape. Therefore, today, they appears useful but have an aesthetic value, too.

Representation of the Madonna: Under the Bologna’s arcades, there are a great number of Virgin Mary’s representations made with different technique and showing various scenes of her life. These underline the devotion of Bologna’s inhabitants that asked to these Madonnas to benedict their everyday life. Today people walk without raise up their heads and so they don’t pay attention to these artistic works, some of them wonderful, that make precious the walls of buildings. They are symbols referred to a Christian background but, also, there are important for their artistic and historical meaning.

Dalla’s sculpture: Lucio Dalla was a very famous Italian musician that died some years ago. He was born in Bologna and he related his life and his musical work with this town. One month ago, the municipality had decided to place , for a short period, a bronze Dalla’s sculpture in a small square near his house. In these days many tourist, inhabitants want to see this art craft especially to take a selfie with it. Therefore, there is always a small crowd of people near the sculpture. Usually people want to take a picture with objects that are representative of a town, but seldom they know the history or simply the name of what it is represented. In this case, people with different background are collected by their love for music and wanted a picture as the fans desire the sign of their idol.

== Landscape Symbol 3-Documenta 6 Kassel, Vera Hausmanns ==

=== Representations and analytical drawings ===
''in addition to your initial visual please add two further analytical drawings of your symbol''
<gallery caption=" " widths="250px" heights="150px" perrow="3">
Image:Art Installation "Rahmenbau" part of the documenta 6.jpeg|Art Installation "Rahmenbau" part of the documenta 6
Image:groupI_slide2.JPG|slide 2
Image:groupI_slide3.JPG|slide 3
</gallery>

This art installation is a work of art of the documenta. The documenta is an art exhibition of modern art, which takes place each seven years at Kassel. It is called "Rahmenbau" or "Landschaft im Dia", what means in English something like framing or landscape in a slide. It is built 1977 by a group of architects and artists on the occasion of the documenta 6. In former times on this place has been a building called "Auetor". The "Auetor" should depict a window to the landscape. When a big theater has been built at this place the "Auetor" is torn off. After World War II the view to the landscape has been free again. So they built this art installation for the documenta to remember on the "Auetor" and made a new window to the landscape possible.

I think, this work of art has a historical background. I am sure, that most of the people that visited it didn't know about this. They only see the art installation of the documenta 6. So I would like to say it has changed his meaning from a modern "reconstruction" of the "Auetor" to a work of art of the documenta 6. I would classify it as a chnange of meaning in a cultural way. And I think this meaning concern only Kassel.

Inside the frame you can see all the important parts that represent Kassel. In the front of the view, you can see the "Orangerie" which show you the history of the town. In the background you can see a smoke stack which represents the industry and in the front of the frame you see the "Friedrichsplatz" with all the people. For me these things are the parts that represent Kassel. I am not sure if this is only a very personal interpretation or if other people are thinking the same. In his properties as a work of art representing the documenta 6 as the exhibition of modern art it might have other meanings to other cultures and other people.

== Landscape Symbol 4- St. Petersburg, Russia Julia Sevrugova ==

</gallery>

Color itself could be a significant symbol of Saint Petersburg. Since the foundation of the city, special attention has been paid to the color range used when designing facades of the buildings. The standards have been changing throughout the centuries, but some patterns still stay the same. Despite the fashion trends, warm colors have always dominated. This tendency can be explained quite easily. Saint Petersburg is a Nordic city, and it has rather cool and damp climate. Gloomy skies, cold weather and lack of the sunlight during the wintertime affect people both on physiological and psychological levels. Yellow, orange and light red colors of the buildings and street lighting imitate the sunshine and help to mitigate the negative effects of Nordic climate. Indirectly, this also influences different spheres of social life.

== Landscape Symbol 5- Bangladesh, Md Abdulla Al-Mamun ==

</gallery>

=== Reflections ===
Climate, location and soil formation of the country allows agriculture as one of the important sector in the economy of Bangladesh. Similarly a large number of population are directly involved in this sector. According to the World Bank, the total arable land in Bangladesh is 61.2 percent of the total land area. Since, the specific landscape or the community where I grownup has a special contribution in agricultural sector, I have choose to explore it as a landscape symbol for this seminar.

‘Rajshahi’ is the north of Bangladesh and the climate is classified as tropical, also known as warmer city of the country. Therefore, the particular climate and soil formation permits to grow a mango trees. Almost every house has a single tree of it and outside of the town a huge horizon is covered by the mango gardens. At the same time is a pleasant green all over the year and large agro industry for a specific season. The amount of the production is much high that is exported to abroad after satisfying the need of the country.

The whole process, from the field to the market and till to the consumer, a large number of people involved. The farmers are the mail persons who confirm the supply. It’s an open market for all kind of people who are interested to buy. The two centered picture shows the circumstances of this process. Therefore, it has a large impact on the local economy. Likewise, the mango-based trade and business has changed the rural economic scenario of the region as a whole.

To praise the situation and as local pride in very often the representation can be seen as a form of sculpture or in printing media.

{{#display_map: 51.31919389799115,9.492835521959933~Sophies location}}

Das Tempelhofer Feld ist ein geschichtsträchtiger Ort. Flugpioniere wie die Brüder Wright nutzten das Areal bereits für frühe Flugversuche, es gilt weiterhin als Gründungsort der Lufthansa und wurde später vom Flugplatz zum Flughafen umgebaut. Eine der wohl bedeutendsten historischen Begebenheiten stellen hierbei die Starts der sogenannten „Rosinenbomber“ dar, welche West- Berlin während der Berlin Blockade mit Lebensmitteln versorgten (TEMPELHOF PROJEKT GMBH (O. J. (a)) [ONLINE]). Danach fungierte der Platz als Flughafen mit internationaler Anbindung, welcher Mitte der 1970er Jahre bereits kurzzeitig stillgelegt und nach einer Wiederbelebung Anfang der 1980er schließlich 2008

== Geschichte ==

*komplett aus dem Flugverkehr genommen wurde (BERLIN.DE- TOURISMUS (O. J.) [ONLINE]).
*Doch sowohl das unter denkmalschutzstehende Flughafengebäude, als auch das
**etwa 303 ha große Außenareal inkl. Start- und #Landebahn ist mit Berlin und den Berlinern verankert.
#Die Berliner identifizieren sich mit ihm.
#Weiterhin befindet sich das Gelände in einer guten
##innenstadtnahen Lage
###(BERLIN.DE- SENATSVERWALTUNG FÜR STADTENTWICKLUNG UND UMWELT (O. J.) [ONLINE]).
###Deshalb war es auch nicht verwunderlich, dass sich nach Aufgabe und bereits vor
###der offiziellen Öffnung des Areals 2010 zahlreiche Protestbewegungen gebildet hatten. Sie besetzten das ehemalige Flughafengelände und demonstrierten gegen Entwicklungspläne der Stadt Berlin. Es folgte eine Öffnung des gesamten [[Geländes]] für die Bevölkerung unter Vorbehalt. Die Stadt war weiterhin an einer Bebauung zumindest in den Randbereichen des Feldes interessiert und veröffentlichte ihren veränderten Masterplan, der neben dem [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FPUboLbtKU Bau von Wohnungen], eine zusätzliche '''Veränderung des Feldes''' anstrebte, bereits kurz nach der Eröffnung 2010 (PAUL ULRICH (2014) [ONLINE].
Partizipative Prozesse sind schon lange ein Bestandteil der Planungsebenen Deutschlands und fanden auch im Rahmen der Nachnutzung des Tempelhofer Feldes Anwendung, allerdings scheinen sich die Bürger nur unzureichend vertreten gefühlt zu haben.
