EX 09: BMW Guggenheim Lab (Meet me in the Lab. Let's talk about your ideal city.)

I have been invited to lead a public simulation for this mobile laboratory, a collaboration between BMW and the Guggenheim foundation.

Other activities in the Lab... movie screenings.

According to the UNFPA: "In 2008, for the first time in history, more than half of the world’s population will be living in towns and cities. By 2030 this number will swell to almost 5 billion, with urban growth concentrated in Africa and Asia. While mega-cities have captured much public attention, most of the new growth will occur in smaller towns and cities, which have fewer resources to respond to the magnitude of the change.

How about we explore that? Do come by the Lab and let me know what you think about life in the city.
