The Data Pavillon is a temporary structure, placed in public space and warmed by a fireplace. This place acts as an information desk about the Human Cities Festival. It is a workspace and a rally point for those who are interested to know more about the opportunities of the public space. In this structure people will be allowed to consult and enrich an open archive that gathers information on the Human Cities topic of reclaiming public space. Feel free to bring any publication, project,…that would feed the archive.

WEBDOC: When Human makes Cities
“As I set out to explore these different projects, I realized how often things come into being through the sheer willpower and pugnacity of ordinary men and women. Located in vastly different cities, these citizens of humanity reflect the social and political fabric of the place which instigated their actions. Spurred on by their ideals, and often minimizing the hardships, challenges and time constraints, these individuals threw themselves wholeheartedly and fearlessly into an adventure that only seems obvious to us today. This documentary tells their story” (Victor Lévy) Discover the webdoc HERE.
