“Its cold, but we have to face with it, if we want our family members still alive”
These are less words with whom Northern Mitrovica Albanian inhabitants starts conversation with a journalist. On the way to Mitrovica around 40/km road away from Pristina Kosovo’s capitol, at the entrance road of Mitrovica the highway to Belgrade, you may think that this is the border, because of the UN CUSTOMS check point, which checkpoint is still displaced as result of march event’s 2008. The activities have been acted by the Serbs inhabitants activities as drawback of Kosovo Independence declaration on February 17th ’08.
Since 1999 Mitrovica a city into the northern Kosovo is not anymore only “Northern Kosovo” there is Northern Mitrovica which include around 50/km length from the main bridge, which bridge used to been used as a border between ethnic Albanians into the Southern Side and majority of 90% Serbs into the Northern side. The border officers are still in southern side of divided town.
->After last developments in northern Mitrovica at the Bosnian Block as it use to been called locally (Bosnjacka Mahalla), when hundreds of Kosovo Serbs destroyed several Albanian shops in the flashpoint town of Mitrovica Albanian inhabitants re-organize their self. Now they are holding nights and days civilian patrols around Northern Albanian area.
“We are here in order to improve safe and security environment for our families” told BPA Fevzi Beqiri, one of the northern Mitrovica Albanian inhabitant. Since Kosovo proclaimed Independence on February 17th ’08, Albanian inhabitant’s didn’t feel their self safe. “We’re all time under provocations, Serbs usually comes around without any plate on their car, they use to provoke us in different way, our children we had to bring in the school by our self, otherwise, we could visit them after in any hospital” said Beqiri.

Shifting Paradigms from Mass Production to Mass Customization
Computational architecture and design course
Conventional construction methods all depart from the basic premises of mass production: standardization, modulation and a production line. What these systems developed during the last two centuries fail to take into account are the evolutionary leaps and bounds the manufacturing industry has taken over the last decades. With the introduction of CNC technologies and rapid prototyping machines have altered the paradigms of fabrication forever. It is due to these new tools that it is now possible to create (n) amount of completely unique and different pieces with the same amount of energy and material that is required to create (n) identical pieces. The possibilities for implementation of new forms, textures, materials and languages are infinite due to the versatility that these new tools offer a growing network of architects, designers, fabricators that are integrating them into their professional practices to generate unique and precise objects that respond to countless data and real-life conditions.

*** This picture was taken without provocation in any way, shape or form. ***
This sculpture, by artist Julita Wojcik, is seen as a symbol of tolerance towards Poland’s gay community, but its location - right next to the historic Kościół Najświętszego Zbawiciela (“Church of the Holiest Saviour”) - is also regarded as a “provocation” by conservative and religious fanatics.
The sculpture was attacked by arsonists two weeks after I took this photo - the latest in a string of such incidents since it was unveiled two years ago.

Disclaimer. This is a provocation in sooo many dimensions. Will tell you later in what ways. You who see, see it. Mea Culpa. Hereby, I am obliged and forced to. Härtill är jag nödd och tvungen. #brasklapp #lifemission #revolution #evolution #creativecommons #FTW !
