The document discusses Idefon Cerda's expansion plan for Barcelona from the 1850s. It examines how Cerda proposed a rational grid plan for Barcelona to accommodate major population growth from industrialization. Some key aspects of Cerda's plan included:
1. A symmetrical grid of streets tilted at 45 degrees to maximize sunlight.
2. Blocks designed with two sides built up and two sides left open for public space like parks and plazas.
3. Consideration for factors like housing density, ventilation, recreation and neighborhood services.
4. While rational, the plan accommodated existing major roads and allowed for architectural experimentation within blocks.

Houses at l’estaque by Georges Braque (Cubism)Chloe Munro
This painting by Georges Braque depicts houses in the village of L'Estaque. It is one of the earliest Cubist works, simplifying forms into geometric blocks without traditional perspective or distinction between foreground and background. Braque eliminates details and reduces foliage to reveal the geometric structure of the houses. The limited color palette and composition of intersecting lines and planes helped establish Braque's signature Analytical Cubism style.

Joseph Kosuth's conceptual artwork One and Three Chairs from 1965 consisted of a real chair with a photo of the chair and the dictionary definition, exemplifying the emerging Conceptual art movement that valued an artwork's concept over physical properties. Lawrence Weiner, Douglas Huebler, and Robert Barry were influential early Conceptual artists who created text-based works or documented everyday activities. Hans Haacke and Michael Asher practiced institutional critique, questioning how art was valued and presented in society. Bruce Nauman worked across mediums like video and neon to blend Conceptualism with performance and language-based works. The feminist art movement, led by Judy Chicago and Miriam Schapiro at CalArts, encouraged female artists to address
1) Cubism began in the early 20th century as artists like Picasso and Braque sought new ways to depict objects from multiple perspectives in their paintings.
2) They drew inspiration from Cezanne and sought to show multiple views of subjects simultaneously rather than from a single viewpoint.
3) This led Picasso and Braque to incorporate techniques like geometric fragmentation and collage to analyze subjects from different angles on a two-dimensional surface.
Tackling wicked problems: A social policy planning framework for addressing l...Kimberly Vardeman
The presentation introduces the concept of wicked problems and their application to library user experience design. It defines wicked problems as having no clear definition or solution, with ongoing consequences. Ten key characteristics of wicked problems are outlined. The presentation then discusses approaches to resolving wicked problems, including authoritative, collaborative, and competitive methods. A case study of redesigning a library website is used to illustrate how it posed a wicked problem with conflicting stakeholder perspectives. The presentation concludes by arguing the wicked problems model can change how user experience practitioners approach defining success and solutions.
The document discusses how Los Angeles exemplifies a postmodern city due to its instability from being built on a fault line and surrounded by desert, its decentralized and fragmented nature with no clear center and emergence of edge cities, and high levels of segregation among its population. It also notes the many social, environmental, and infrastructure problems facing the city like pollution, traffic, gangs, and lack of public transportation options. Scholars analyze how Los Angeles has come to represent future urban forms through its sprawl, reliance on cars, and myth-making around concepts like climate and freeways.
This document discusses various artists who use the urban environment as inspiration in their work. It describes styles and subject matters including architecture, buildings, textures, graffiti, shopping, consumerism, architectural details, and people in the urban environment. Specific artists mentioned include Banksy, Kurt Schwitters, Wayne Thiebaud, Edward Hopper, David Hockney, and many others who represent the urban landscape through a variety of mediums and techniques.

Banksy is a British artist born in 1974 in Bristol, England. He is known for his recognizable graffiti art found on walls, bridges, and trains from London to New York. Much of his work can be found on his website and he began using stencils as his medium, which allowed him to rapidly reproduce designs. Banksy's work is often political in nature and incorporates the environment.
Cubism was an influential early 20th century avant-garde art movement that revolutionized European painting and sculpture. Led by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, Cubism was characterized by the geometric fragmentation and synthetic reassembly of forms to depict subject matter from multiple viewpoints in the same canvas. Major influences on Cubism included African tribal masks, Cézanne's compositions, and Fauvism. Cubism evolved from an early phase of angular, simplified still life subjects to a later incorporation of collage materials and brighter colors. Key Cubist artists beyond Picasso and Braque included Juan Gris, Fernand Léger, and Jean Metzinger.
In Donald Barthelme's 1974 short story "I Bought a Little City", the narrator decides one day to purchase Galveston, Texas, where he then tears down some houses, shoots 6,000 dogs, and rearranges what remains into the shape of a giant Mona Lisa jigsaw puzzle visible only from the air. As with much of Barthelme's work, the premise seems so absurd that one cannot help but shake it until a metaphor falls out, and here one might well assume that, in the words of the novelist Donald Antrim, "I Bought a Little City" is "a take on the role that a writer has in writing a story – playing god,
Urban Design Optional Work Delhostal JérémyJérémy Dlh
Rem Koolhaas explores the concept of the generic city, characterized by homogenization and lack of identity. Generic cities function like airports, with the same shops in standard locations. They are ruled by supply and demand with no historical or cultural influences. This lack of established patterns creates a freedom for inhabitants but may lead to the disappearance of individual city identities. Koolhaas presents the generic city as an inevitable result of globalization and mass immigration but does not make a clear argument in favor or against it. He describes it as a fractal, endless repetition that can be easily rebuilt. The piece reads more like a script than a theoretical work, and it is unclear if Koolhaas praises or laments the advent
Vincent van Gogh's Starry Night was painted in 1889. It depicts a night sky filled with swirling clouds and stars over a small village. While the sky is dramatic, the village below appears peaceful. The cypress tree and church steeple are painted with curving lines that guide the eye across the canvas. Van Gogh used vivid colors, especially yellow and blue, not for realism but to convey emotion. The bright stars and moon contrast with the darker village to symbolize hope and the possibility of finding light even in the darkness.

1) Stockholm has transformed over time from a walkable medieval old town to expanding suburbs focused on cars, and now aims to again promote walkability and transit with its city plan.
2) A survey of over 4,850 people about future scenarios for Stockholm showed the most popular was a "Techno City" focused on high growth, public transit, and shared mobility rather than car-oriented suburban sprawl.
3) Reducing car space and increasing pedestrian access and connectivity is a goal for redesigning areas like Slussen in Stockholm.
The document outlines the Futurist Manifesto published in 1909 by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, which celebrated modernity, technology, youth and rejected traditionalism. It initiated the Futurist movement in art, which praised speed, machinery, violence and industry. The manifesto expressed admiration for vehicles like cars and their association with speed and danger. It called for rejecting the past and tradition in favor of embracing the new modern world.
Futurism was an early 20th century art movement that originated in Italy and emphasized concepts of the future like speed, technology, youth, and violence. The movement was founded in 1909 by the Italian writer Filippo Marinetti through his Futurist Manifesto published in Le Figaro newspaper. Futurists worked in many artistic mediums but admired technology and the modern world while loathing traditions of the past. Key figures introduced included Filippo Marinetti, Fortunato Depero, Enrico Prampolini, and Guillaume Apollinaire, a French poet who experimented with typography in his works.

The document discusses the importance of taking a solutions-based approach to climate change education, particularly with young people. It gives several reasons why this approach is important: 1) It engages students and gives them a sense of empowerment. 2) Focusing only on the science and impacts of climate change does not necessarily motivate action. 3) Finding and implementing solutions is practical and necessary to mitigate and adapt to climate change. 4) Involving youth voice is important because they will be most impacted by climate change and need to play a key role in decision making. The document also provides some examples of solutions-oriented activities like citizen science projects and education campaigns. It emphasizes using age-appropriate approaches to avoid making youth feel helpless

The document discusses teaching curriculum development to integrate education for active citizenship and sustainable development. It argues that simply increasing literacy is not enough and that education must encourage public participation and community decision making. It also stresses that institutions must model sustainable practices and that curricula need to focus on developing skills, values and perspectives that support sustainability. The document advocates for a whole school-whole system approach where sustainable values are reflected both inside and outside the classroom. It provides principles for curriculum design like conservation, peace, equity and appropriate development to teach students how to apply sustainable practices at all levels of decision making.
Guiding the Emergence of Humanity's FutureJoe Brewer
This document is a synthesis of inquiry that incorporates ideas and inspiration from many people. It grew out of conversations with Federico Bellone, Eduard Müller, Juan Sostheim, Melina Angel, Pramod Parajuli, Luis Camargo, Daniel Wahl, Stuart Cowan, and several others. What I learned from this diverse dialogue—accompanied by extensive reading—is that pedagogy is the most important thing to get right for any educational initiative that seeks to cultivate bioregional regeneration.
Pedagogy refers to the many ways of learning and how people evolve in their thoughts, feelings, actions, and social arrangements. It is a multifaceted concept that draws attention to capacities for cooperation, ability to trust others, perspective-taking, and a lot more that must be carefully addressed (and elegantly integrated) in the design of education programs. Pedagogy is often framed as a way to teach a particular concept or subject. I prefer to turn this around and employ it as a design perspective for how to assist the learning process, even if no teacher happens to be involved.
Shared here are some of the key pedagogical insights and thematic elements that have arisen so far in this inquiry. This learning journey is far from complete and will continue well after these words are written to the page. It is my earnest belief that Bioregional Regenerative Training Centers must emerge all over the world as integrative programs that help spread the practices and mindsets for regeneration of human communities and the ecosystems on which they depend for their survival.
Sustainable development has three components: environment, society, and economy. If you consider the three to be overlapping circles of the same size, the area of overlap in the center is human well-being. As the environment, society, and economy become more aligned, the area of overlap increases, and so does human well-being.

1) The document discusses the need for environmental education and sustainable development to be integrated into school curriculums.
2) It notes that while science and technology have benefits, they have also contributed to environmental degradation without sustainable practices.
3) The document argues that education must motivate active participation in problem solving, discuss the social and moral impacts of environmental actions, and help students understand the consequences of human manipulation of the environment.
Re-Connecting the World's Children To NatureKlausGroenholm
This document calls for action to strengthen children's connection to nature. It notes that children benefit in many ways from spending time in natural environments, but that opportunities for this are declining. The call to action asks families, educators, and community leaders worldwide to make developmentally appropriate nature education a central part of children's daily lives and education. It proposes that experiencing nature is essential for children's healthy development and will help them develop care for the environment as adults.
- Environmental education aims to increase environmental literacy and skills to address environmental issues. It began in the 1930s in response to the Dust Bowl and has expanded globally over time.
- Key milestones include the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, the UNESCO Belgrade Charter of 1975, and the UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development from 2005-2014.
- The document outlines several frameworks for ecoliteracy, which emphasize systems thinking, concern for the environment, and understanding humanity's interdependence with natural systems. Active learning approaches like project-based learning are important for developing ecoliteracy.
During this webinar, leading experts present the benefits of including setting sector-specific targets in countries’ next generation NDCs and layout specific examples for how to approach targets for key sectors like energy, transport, buildings, food, agriculture and land use. These sectors collectively emit about 90% of greenhouse gas emissions globally.

3. “Research is increasingly finding that climate denial’s apparent opposite,
climate anxiety, is one of the major barriers to climate action. Indeed, what
appears to be apathy can actually be feelings of grief and disempowerment
that are too difficult to engage with, leading to denial as a mechanism for
short-term emotional coping.
We do not have the inter/personal competencies necessary for engaging
with the intense combination of guilt and fear induced by this existential crisis”
From Learning to Live with Climate Change: From Anxiety to Transformation, Blanche Verlie, 2022.
4. Problem
Statement
A recent survey of 10,000 young people in 10 countries
reports climate change causing widespread climate and
eco-anxiety. Overall, 75% of young respondents said, “the
future is frightening.”
Diversity in thinking and creativity are important for diverse
climate solutions. A growing body of research highlights a
strong correlation between neurodiversity and creativity.
However, neurodiverse individuals have competing
pressures that often prevent them from meeting basic and
security needs, which might prevent them from engaging in
regeneration and climate action.
Efforts for public adoption of climate and environmental
engagement need to include training in explicit emotional
intelligence tools to cope with compounding crises and
build psychological resilience, especially for vulnerable
populations like children, youth, and people with disabilities
and neurodiversity.
5. We need a
Strong Vision to
Lead a Cultural
Shift
“As our world roils with
calamity, we need solutions,
not warnings. Solutions to live
comfortably without fossil
fuels, to equitably manage
scarcity and share abundance,
to be kinder to each other and
to the planet we share. At once
a vision of the future, a
thoughtful provocation, and an
achievable lifestyle.”
~Jay Springett
6. Disconnected Worlds
Vulnerable populations such as children, young people, and neurodiverse
communities need exposure to climate/regeneration solutions, outlets to
channel their eco-anxiety, and spaces to activate their creativity, so they can
contribute their gifts to the climate/ReFi/ regeneration movements and gain a
sense of purpose and active hope for the future.
There are incredible solutions, cutting-edge initiatives, and on-the-ground
projects. Unfortunately, these underrepresented and vulnerable communities
often don't have access to this information because they are too busy trying to
survive in a system that drains their creative energy.
How do we invite people of all ages and all backgrounds to engage in
regeneration and climate action at the scale and speed that is required?
7. Solution:
Framework for Intergenerational
Environmental Engagement
Solarpunk Generation proposes a framework for climate communication and environmental education grounded in
eco-psychology, community psychology, positive psychology, social-emotional learning, and storytelling, which can
spark inspiration, reduce climate change helplessness, and increase agency, resilience, and environmental engagement
in people of all ages and backgrounds:
Solution-focused stories are more effective than catastrophic stories in motivating pro-environmental intentions
(Baden, 2019).
Participants who read articles on climate change that framed individual actions as either effective or impactful,
indeed believed their individual actions made more impact, whereas the opposite led to climate helplessness
(Salomon, Preston, and Tannenbaum 2017).
Studies suggest that some activism is effective in building hope and in reducing anxiety and despair (Feldman and
Hart, 2015).
Hope has been associated with cognitive flexibility and creativity (Rey, 2020).
Research shows that children can foster climate change concern among their parents (Lawson Et al., 2019).
Research shows that both adolescents and their parents influence each other’s pro-environmental intentions and
behaviors, suggesting that not only parents but also adolescents, may be important agents of positive changes in
families and society (Zukauskiene, et al., 2020).
8. Solarpunk Generation’s
Framework for Intergenerational
Environmental Engagement
Education, exposure, training, and mentoring would
allow children, youth, and neurodiverse individuals to
explore their interests within the climate, ReFi, and
regeneration movements and connect their strengths to
specific causes they care about.
Helping these vulnerable populations connect with
mentors and resources to develop new ideas or join
existing initiatives and community-based service
projects focused on climate solutions/ReFi/regeneration
is a powerful way to engage the adults in their lives.

13. Objectives
OBJECTIVE 1:
Act as a bridge between disconnected
worlds by providing education and
exposure to existing on-the-ground
solutions in the Web3, ReFi, and
regeneration ecosystems.
This will be accomplished initially
through the Solarpunk Generation
Podcast , which is the seed for other
upcoming projects.
14. OBJECTIVE 2:
Provide talent-development opportunities and emotional coping tools to align
individual’s gifts to regeneration and climate change action efforts. This will be
accomplished through a trauma-informed curriculum that aims to help individuals
identify their unique roles in building this future.
This curriculum will be initially piloted and tested as an enrichment resource for existing
eco-literacy programs and on-the-ground local communities wishing to implement
educational programming or consult to strengthen their pedagogical models, structures,
and strategies.
The curriculum will be eventually delivered through Solarpunk Camps offered seasonally.
The curriculum combines best practices to address climate despair and eco-anxiety with
research-based educational strategies to spark imagination, creativity, and innovation in
children and youth, serving as a model for other local and global communities.
Objectives
15. OBJECTIVE 3: Elevate and amplify the voices and solutions of marginalized
communities and help them channel their creative energy to contribute to new and
existing innovative and practical solutions to climate change, regeneration, and social
justice issues. This will be accomplished through the podcast, children’s book, and
curriculum.
OBJECTIVE 4: Design, co-create, and facilitate in-person and online events that
include shorter versions and stand-alone elements of the overall curriculum. These
include nature restoration camps, art immersions, and experiential learning events
focused on community-based and project-based service learning.
OBJECTIVE 5: Collaborate with other projects, organizations, movements, individuals,
and groups to promote ecological health and resilience and facilitate the creation of
global networks of eco-hubs or Solarpunk Hubs and common pools of resources
designed to harness our collective creativity to build a regenerative civilization.
Objectives
16. Podcast and Children’s Book
