PUBLIC: Present Predicaments in Architecture and Urban Planning
PUBLIC is the third installment of a series of conferences exploring present predicaments in architecture and urban planning. This conference focued on the relationships between planning, architecture, and the public while exploring the social impact of designs and decisions. Questions to be considered included: What role should public space play? What is the public definition of beauty? What forces enable planning and architecture to redefine culture and serve as a catalyst for change?
A diverse group of experts who actively shape the public opinion of architecture and planning responded through informal discussion to a series of four "provocations." These free-ranging conversations underscored the complexities and contradictions inherent in each provocation as well as suggest potential solutions to such predicaments. Open discussion at the end of the afternoon encouraged the audience to take part in the conversations.

I was invited to a conference on written advertising of which took me to the national broadcasting complex (called Sedaye Sima, it's spans a large area). Amusingly all the speakers were British but with a wealth of international knowledge and experience.
One of the speakers was a chaps, Simon Kornburg, that comes and provides training for the company I work with. Another fella, Gaskill, was the CEO (if I'm not mistaken - probably a regional director) of Lamborghini and later BMW.
The goodies given were fake leather briefcases stuffed with odds and sods, were were catered for and also given the opportunity to win one of 15 $500 watches by text messages to rate the speakers. I didn't win.
The conference „Digital Backyards Japan“ has been initiated by smal.jp and berlinergazette.de. It took place during three days of January 2013 (10th-12th) in northern Japan at the Sapporo Media Arts Lab. The aim was to explore future forms of networking in the field of knowledge production.
The awareness towards the digital monopolism of companies based in Silicon valley is growing all over the world. Also in Japan. But what are alternatives to Google and Facebook? The conference „Digital Backyards Japan“ claims: The answer can not be yet another internet giant of Japanese origin to rival Google and Facebook. A real alternative would be to empower diversity.
The resources for alternatives to an increasingly centralized internet landscape lie dormant in Japan's diversity itself: tinker garages, corporate hotbeds, grassroots hubs, institutional labs, hacker bedrooms, editorial outposts etc. In those digital backyards various stakeholders in the field of knowledge production have been pursuing their innovative work over the last decades. However its potential has not been exhausted yet.
What can be done about this? The conference invited open minded bloggers, entrepreneurs, researchers, cultural workers, journalists and programmers to explore synergies between their work. Here they discussed: Why do we network in the first place? What do we see as emerging trends? What are up and coming web services? What is the potential of decentralized strategies?
The motivation of the conference is to think and network beyond the given (e.g. infrastructures) and the dominant (e.g. cultures). Above all it is about exploring dormant potentials: How can Japan's digital backyards catalyse networking cultures in a sustainable way? How can they revitalize a country in deep crisis? And how can they help to connect Japan anew with world society?
„Digital Backyards Japan“ was a kick off event for more meetings in Japan/Asia and a follow up of a Berlin summit in October 2012. The spontaneous proliferation of the conference enables a fruitful process of cross-regional learning from: Insights from the debates in Europe are shared in Japan/Asia and vice versa.

As a leading manufacturer of custom control room solutions, Winsted specializes in design, development fabrication and installation of any custom workstation consoles for complex technical environments.
Our custom control room solutions are found in power and process plants, military and transportation command centers and communication centers globally. This experience taught us to consider countless intricate details when creating the ideal control room.
Today, I've spent 5 hours on the phone in conference calls. It's tough: when you only hear voices of the participants, you miss most of the nuances of the meeting. It's terribly frustrating.
(I was clean shaven when I started the calls)

Governor Kay Ivey gave remarks at the KultureCity Press Conference Tuesday August 3, 2021 in Montgomery, Ala. The KultureCity’s sensory inclusive program is designed to help individuals with sensory needs like PTSD, autism, dementia, strokes, and ADHD, to help them feel comfortable and better understood within their community. The goal of the company is to provide professional training, sensory bags, and signage, which enables the program to help and ensure all individuals are accepted and better received regardless of the situation.
