VAGES TERRAIN
Wo werden wir leben? Wo werden wir sein, wenn wir arbeiten oder entspannen? Wer oder was entscheidet darüber? Welche Möglichkeiten werden urbane Agglomerationen für die räumliche Alltagspraxis bieten? Welche Bedeutung werden lokale Differenzen haben? Wie werden wir uns auf einem beschädigten Planeten verteilen, und wo wird wem was zur Verfügung stehen? Mit diesem Sammelband ist die Einladung verbunden, gewohnte Sichtweisen zu verlassen und neue Perspektiven darauf zu werfen, wie eine Standortwahl in der Stadt von übermorgen aussehen könnte. Unterschiedliche Akteur:innen wurden eingeladen, sieben Begriffe scheinbarer Beständigkeit in Essays, Interviews oder künstlerischen Beiträgen zu erkunden: Freiheit, Angst, Chaos, Toleranz, Prestige, Permanenz und Fake. Das Buch gibt dabei kein lineares Narrativ vor, sondern lädt zum Quer- und Wiederlesen ein.
Wasser Stadt Wien
„Wasser Stadt Wien – Eine Umweltgeschichte“ folgt dem gemeinsamen Wandel der Stadt Wien und ihrer Gewässer in den letzten 500 Jahren. Das Buch handelt von der Vergangenheit und weist gerade deshalb auch in eine Zukunft, in der die Stadt ihre aquatische Identität neu entwickeln wird. Auf einer Reise durch Zeiten und Räume, die bis zum Schwarzen Meer und an die Nordsee führt, laden die Beiträge zum Verweilen am Nußdorfer Wehr ein, ebenso wie zur Spurensuche an den verschwundenen Mühlbächen der Liesing. Sie besuchen die Donauschiffer und Donaufischer, die Wäschermädel und Bierbrauer, das Stadtphysikat oder die Kommissionen für die Donauregulierung und die Wasserversorgung. Beri...
+ QUE 20 ANS APRÈS
"Director of the Generali Foundation from 2008 to 2014, Sabine Folie helped establish the institution's reputation for generating new critical discussion on contemporary art through revisiting modernism. This survey publication, illustrated with photographs and source materials, documents the collection of works acquired during Folie's tenure. Essays by theorists and artists reflect on contemporary art themes exploring areas such as linguistic devices, the dismantling of representation and the reorganization of pictorial space, the changing role of artist and museums, the relationship between subject and environment due to globalization and post-colonialism, artistic processing of history and the production of memorial culture. Included are commentary and artworks by Lothar Baumgarten, Marcel Broodthaers, Ernst Caramelle, Peter Downsbrough, Harun Farocki, Morgan Fisher, Stéphane Mallarmé, Klaus Scherübel, Josef Strau, Ana Torfs, Joëlle Tuerlinckx, and Ian Wallace, among others."--Publisher.
New Social Housing
With the IBA_Vienna 2022, which was announced in 2016, the Austrian capital is taking on the challenges of an International Building Exhibition for the first time. The focus on New Social Housing refers to Vienna's historical core competence in housing construction and to the most pressing question for the development of European cities today: in light of current changes, how can cities remain inclusive, livable, and affordable, and what can comprehensive neighborhood development contribute to realizing these aims?0On the occasion of the interim presentation in 2020, the future.lab at the TU Vienna and IBA_Vienna 2022 will offer a first summary of where things stand, allowing experts from research, planning, politics, and practice to articulate positions.
The Vienna Model 2
Throughout the world, Vienna is seen as the secret capital of social housing. Indeed, since the 1920s, the Austrian capital has developed a unique system of subsidized housing construction, independent of the?free? market, in which more than sixty percent of its population lives today.0'The Vienna Model 2', the book accompanying the successful exhibition by the same name, analyzes the latest developments in housing and documents the best Viennese examples from the last ten years. It shows how technical, ecological, and social qualities are continuously developed further as part of a wide participatory process, and can thereby set new standards. The0IBA_Vienna 2022, which is presented in this book for the first time, will also be dedicated to the topic of?New Social Housing.? Alongside this, renowned experts present the current housing construction situation in North America, Asia, and the EU. This volume therefore represents, together with its predecessor book The Vienna Model, a significant contribution to the worldwide discussion on the future of housing in cities, which will soon accommodate two-thirds of the world?s population.
SMART PARKING IN FAST-GROWING CITIES
Parking is a challenge for cities everywhere, but especially for cities in low- and middle-income countries. There, cities are experiencing rapid urbanization and increasing motorization, while investment capacity for parking infrastructure is limited, and despite the availability of free on-street parking, it is not used in an efficient and coordinated way. This book is meant to act as a resource for those managing urban parking challenges, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. This openAccess book can provide immediate guidance to city authorities, engineering firms, and urban planners worldwide and help develop data-driven solutions for smarter cities. The first part of this book portrays geospatial technologies in the context of urban mobility in smart cities. The second part focuses on implementing those technologies in parking management in low and middle-income countries.
WIND POWER DEPLOYMENT IN URBANISED REGIONS
Delivering sustainable energy solutions has become a fundamental task of spatial planning. This dissertation considers the field of tension between higher-tier energy schemes and local-level implementation practices by analysing regional planning policies regarding wind power from an institutional perspective. Institutional challenges in spatial planning are closely related in particular to the flexibility and adaptability of those planning practices that are needed to supply ´acceptable locations´. Similar trends can be detected at a European level: targeted energy values are combined with administratively defined spaces - by putting the zoning of wind energy generation on regional spatial planning agendas. The outlining of wind power zones is not merely a technical act that determines the territorial spread of wind turbines. Rather, it configures social-organisational entities in which regionally varying sets of actors interact and, in the best case, join forces.

Wendelien van Oldenborgh
Amateur is the first comprehensive publication about Wendelien van Oldenborgh's moving image works, and their accompanying installations. Developed over the past ten years of her practice, these works explore communication and interaction between individuals, often against the backdrop of a unique public location, in order to cast attention on repressed, incomplete, and unresolved histories. Through the staging of these encounters on film, van Oldenborgh enables multiple perspectives and voices to coexist, and brings to light political, social, and cultural relationships and how they are manifested through social interactions. The publication is generously illustrated and brings together a w...
