Human Futures - Shared Memories and Visions
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014,

The HUMAN FUTURES project invites European and Canadian citizens to share their memories and visions through participatory cultural projects. Today we are confronted with enhanced technological solutions in our daily lives and navigate continually between multiple online and offline realms of perception. Problem solving in our cities reaches a new interdisciplinary complexity which we cannot assume individually anymore but for which we need to conceive new spaces for collective thinking and community building:The HUMAN FUTURES MARKETPLACE in Aarhus invites international cities to showcase and exchange their visions for sharing experience of urban problem solving via market camps, workshops and panels.The HUMAN FUTURES PROJECTION PARCOURS in Montreal presents the shared visions of the MARKETPLACE on large-format projection-sites in the urban space as a digital stage for encounter and agora for exchange for the citizens.The HUMAN FUTURES EXPOSITION in Liverpool invites the citizens to participate in a sharing experience environment of different perception levels that document the results of our artistic explorations.In our project we rethink the role of the artist as a moderator for creative processes that involve the citizens in translocal dialogues. As innovative thinkers, problem solvers and avant-garde reality constructors, 4 European and 4 Canadian artists travel to the participating cities and explore new spaces for sharing and collectivity, using culture’s transformative power to show people new perspectives.Out of our artistic explorations we will develop the HUMAN FUTURES TOOLKIT that provides strategies for stimulating creative sharing and collective identity construction for the future development of our cities. With the continual challenging of the European Union and Canada as spatial, economic, politic and identitary entities, we must continually stimulate the citizens’ collective imaginary to keep these places vital and meaningful realities.
