URBAN DRIFT is an independent label and network based in Berlin, which
promotes a trans-cultural urban strategy employing all forms of media and
using the cityscape as both a medium and a sphere of action. Members of
Urban Drift act as tacticians for a contemporary urban praxis, developing
the discourse within Berlin as one of the primary cities of flux. Our aim i=
s
to communicate architecture and urban design to a wider audience, to extend
the boundaries of the architectural discourse, and to maximize the potentia=
l
of interdisciplinary practice.
URBAN DRIFT is ....// a hybrid urban praxis, opening up and communicating
architecture to a wider audience // urban survival strategies // time-based
architecture, temporary and ephemeral // urban transformation and the
reanimation of lost, forgotten, hidden city spaces // drift-inspired by
random movement // neon-inspired // trans-cultural collaboration // the cit=
y
as a medium // scavenging, remapping and resampling the city in light, soun=
d
and text // urban nomadism // 24 hours nightwalking // the reinvention of
spaces // intervention // urban curating // 'cities need planners for the
next century, planners who are autonomous, able to grasp multiple aspects o=
f
reality and refashion them as narratives, to link an increasingly
heterogeneous population in decision making processes' // working with the
city's second skin // fluid identities which are never fixed, communicating
a mobile, fluid urbanity /
Enjoy the drift....
