Description

Abstract from the conference and issue coordinators :
 
The Planned World: Urban, Rural, Wild Conference took place over two beautiful summer days in early August, 2010, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. As with The City: Culture, Society, Technology Conference, held in November, 2009, the conference days proved to be invigorating, stimulating, and full of exciting exchange from participants in varied disciplines who were all interested in the same notion of how the world we live in exists as planned space.

The Planned World Conference was a small and intimate event with about twenty papers presented by speakers from a variety of countries, such as Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, the United States, South Africa, Canada, and Egypt. One thing we learned was that though we live in very different places with different social and cultural worlds, we share many of the same concerns about how the world is a planned place. The conference featured a special lecture by Patrick Y. Foong Chan from Architecture for Humanity Vancouver, as well as a roundtable discussion lead by Architecture for Humanity Vancouver members Linus Lam, Neal LaMontagne, Theresa Fresco, and Patrick Y. Foong Chan. Rounding out our program was a special screening of Yung Chang’s multiple award winning National Film Board of Canada documentary feature film Up the Yangtze.
