City Memory

Migration and exile experiences usually influence at least four aspects, concepts, words: identity/alterity, language, city, memory. ‘Go, study, become a man’: these imperatives do not break the isolation nor the exile, but cross themselves and lock up in a condition of estrangement the boy who receives those orders from his father, and leaves his beloved Diyarbakir to reach the far, remote Istanbul.

Malgorzata Michel, PhD at Jagiellonian University works at the Institute of Education. Her research focuses mainly on local prevention and rehabilitation systems, studying activity of the „street children” afiliating with youth gang activity and deviant hooligan groups in the context of urban studies. The presented text is the outcome of taking part in Mikolaj Grynberg’s workshops focusing on writing about city memory and personal stories in years 2019-2020. Malgorzata Michel combines being a qualitative researcher set in ethnomethodology and writing skills achieved on later mentioned workshops. Her text is an outcome of a process starting with and interview with a teenage hooligan, ex street gang member. Finally, the author showcases a way to present qualitative data in form of a reportage.

The work presented in this chapter delineates the longitudinal experience of deploying an urban computing system that enables citizens to share and interact with digital content about the urban environment and experiences of people with it. It is part of an emerging and novel aspect of urban computing that expands research beyond simple optimisations of city functions towards a social and cultural approach that seeks to orchestrate complex socio-technical ensembles. Offering Collective City Memory as a service to citizens and enabling them to interact with it via diverse novel interfaces has uncovered the implications for city life that the introduction of urban computing brings such as the redefinition of spatial and temporal proximity and the effects on the perception of city space, fostering of social interactions, contribution to shared resources and participation in collective efforts.

Insight Into

The Olympics have a greater, more profound and more pervasive impact on the urban fabric of their host cities than any other sporting or cultural event.  This paper is concerned with issues of memory and remembering in Olympic host cities.  After a contextual introduction, it employs a case study of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park (QEOP), the main event space for the London 2012 Summer Games, to supply insight into how to read the urban traces of Olympic memory.  Three key themes are identified when interpreting the memories associated with the Park and its built structures, namely: treatment of the area’s displaced past, memorializing the Games, and with memory legacy.  The ensuing discussion section then adopts a historiographic slant, stressing the importance of narrative and offering wider conclusions about Olympic memory and the city.

 O artigo visa refletir acerca do ofício de sapateiro em Belém, Pará, partindo das narrativas de trabalhadores que exercem a atividade na porção central da capital paraense (em particular, os bairros de Batista Campos e Campina). O cotidiano das oficinas de calçados revela não apenas um ambiente de labuta: por meio da simbólica do gesto técnico e da dimensão sensível das sociabilidades ali engendradas, os sapateiros preenchem o lugar com o lúdico, o afetivo e um saber-fazer que reinventa a cidade e seus espaços. Por meio das narrativas relacionadas às suas trajetórias de vida, estes trabalhadores evocam memórias de Belém(s) de outrora, reminiscências que fazem vibrar as imagens do presente vivido, redimensionando as experiências espaço-temporais da urbe moderno-contemporânea. O ofício de sapateiro configura, assim, uma das práticas sociais através das quais os citadinos reelaboram os arranjos sociais e suas rítmicas temporais, compondo na poética das ações cotidianas formas outras de viver a cidade.Palavras-chave: Ofício de Sapateiro. Cidade. Memória. From hands, shoes. Through words, time: an ethnography on the streets and neighborhoods in Belém-PAAbstractThis article aims to reflect on shoemaker craft in Belém, Pará, starting from narratives of workers located in capital’s central portion (particularly in Batista Campos and Campina neighborhood). Everyday routine of workshops reveals not only a labor ambience: through symbolical aspect of technical gesture and sensitive dimension of sociability, shoemakers fills the place with the playful, the affective and a know-how that reinvents the city and its spaces. By the narratives related to their life trajectories, these workers evoke memories about Belém from other times, reminiscences that thrill images of present time, resizing spatiotemporal experiences of modern-contemporary metropolis. Shoemaker craft configures a social practice whereby townspeople reelaborate the social arrangements and temporal rhythmics, composing through everyday action’s poetics another ways of experience the city. Key-words: Shoemaker Craft. City. Memory.

Opening Up

Excellent buildings in different period recording city memory in different phases, they are connected up and irreplaceable respectively. As the important part of cultural heritage, modern relics and representative buildings pass historical information authentically and play a crucial role in providing historic witnesses. They are carrying a large number of Chinese history and culture sequentially ranging from the Ming, Qing Dynasty, Republic of China, the early days of New China, the Cultural Revolution period, the Opening-up Reform to contemporary times. They are either relevant to the major historical events and people, or occupy a certain position in the history of urban development. They are the sections of complete chain of history and culture. Nevertheless, they’re hardly shown on the list of “preserved heritage”. Concurrent with the construction of city, a large number of excellent modern buildings are suffering from demolition and destruction for they were young. Because of our lack of conservation consciousness and actions, many of them are in a devil of hole fragmented. The partially neglect of the conservation of modern cultural heritage is bound to cause the rupture of our tradition and blankness in memory. It is an increasingly urgent trend to save and protect these building heritages without any delay. This paper attempts to discuss the problems of modern relics and representative buildings conservation and improvement of conservation system.

The City

The purpose of the work is to systematically comprehend the phenomenon of the city and its space in the parameters of memory, to consider the memory of the city as a whole of temporal dimension, to outline its «coordinates» in the space of Lviv and to supplement the method of their consideration in design decisions. Methodology. The main provisions of the system approach are used in the article; a set of methods and approaches that will ensure the conceptual unity of the study of theoretical and practical components - content analysis (interpretation of the essence of basic concepts), modeling methods and historical; survey of city residents, as well as graphics-analytical, cartographic methods. The scientific novelty of the work is to reveal the phenomenon of city memory as a whole of time, as well as the analysis of the city through the prism of individual, collective and historical memory. Conclusions. Understanding the memory of the city and place will allow professionals to expand the tools for substantiating design decisions, help preserve and use not only the historical but also create a new environment without harm to the environment and human development, which is especially relevant during the urbanization of the historic environment.
