was going to do it for us
I think the city is our great
territory of creation in the city
It seems so intense and so huge.
so diverse
I’m sure each of us
here we have an understanding and a
reading different from the city
each neighborhood each territory to each street
and it seems that we should see the
opportunity to exercise collaboration
to see a new
perspective of
relation to the common territory on the streets
if we understand the approach of the
common or common good
the more we used the streets
better they should be many times
We do not see it in practice.
to happen
and after all who cares about the
city right
every time I ask that question
Does it seem timeless to me?
nine years ago or so I
I started the activities of what is now the
our beloved nomadic studio together with
my partner and brother daniel way and me
I remember that we worked for
quite a while on the balcony of the apartment
his parents and my relationship with
It was a different city, I would go back and walk
every day for work and
my perception of time and
dynamics of the city was completely
another in relation to what I have today
It is for some months I could observe
excavation work on the corner of a
gas station that it was me
instigating that was provoking me
I did not quite know what I was doing.
happening in that crater that was
being excavated
the days went by and I went
discovering huge oranges tanks
gasoline tank looked like bombs and
that in a way it was creating something
in me an instigating I will not
Forget one day that I got on the edge.
breaking gigantic crater and gives me
willingness to go inside and make a
performance
I had never done a performance in the
life I remember I called some
friends
I talked to them, let’s go and make a
Let’s go inside and see the
because it can be very
interesting this experience does not know
Very well, what do you want me to do?
I remember I went there inside
the perplexed people in the back did not
understanding nothing
I was already talking I was talking inside
of that hole, and after a while
this gesture of affectation in relation to
territory we went to discover the
possibility of creating a project was
urban exorcisms project
we did a series of performances
throughout the city
we have the possibility of creating a
digital platform and invite a network
of people around the world to
share in places that were
abandoned and that they could not
create a new network of affections in
relation to the territory a process
much like we can achieve
live public constant
this project at the time were installed
shelves with books in the old
bus stops in the city and some
We had a great time.
visibility in relation to this project
He left much matter in the media when it was
invited to speak in the newspaper to give
radio and television interview
and we understood the meaning of this
project to the extent that we would talking
I remember that for some
moments the media reported that the
project was not going well
somehow the books were
disappearing from the shelves
but what least we mattered in this
moment was the books were not there
were there
we wanted to understand the
dynamics of collaboration in
territory
we often forget the value
of process in the process dimension has
a story that this project I little
I shared and felt at ease with
speak in this forum that the project walk
public he never had authorization
formal for us to be able to do the
more than 20 installations in different
city points
the project has always operated so
illegal and that we tried to make a
approximation with respect to organs
competent authorities to achieve this
authorization
at some point a letter arrives
with a negative saying that then the
project he was not authorized to
because there is no control in
content to be
shared in the books in own
maybe for minors and for me this letter
we have kept it until today it is a
symbol of dimension misunderstanding
of collaboration
I understand that the city is a
territory of conflict that these
conflicts
they occur at different levels
different layers different forums and
has much knowledge has much to know
change in the existence of this
conflict
I think people get away from
more in the possibility of constructing
collaborative dialogue to achieve
make a conflict a power is
decisions of future directions.

are taken over
decisions often do not
transparent camouflaged decisions is a
clay forum
but I certainly did not come here to talk
I certainly did not come here.
for
bring political issues that
prevent you from seeing another
creativity in relation to the city and
It seems like we have to start
understand what it means after all
accounts collaborative work is not
just the act of working together
to collaborate
I understand work as the
possibility of creation collaborate more
we collaborate we are all
time sharing knowledge of the
more diverse levels of the most diverse
values
we need to start to value the
different types of knowledge
we need to find a place of
prices different types of
to know
When we collaborate, we exchange
language is one of the issues
the more complex we have language
is changing every moment
in this spoken language body image
sign language which determines a
language so that we can
effectively collaborate
who collaborates live intense processes of
collaboration is by a process
of affection affection in the sense of
caring to understand place of
speaks of understanding the place of listening
understand the gaps and the possibility
of composition
all these issues
they involve the size of the
collaboration will it be time for the
people learn all this from the
urgencies of problems that we have
in the city
I spend a lot of my time today in
construction of the first laboratory
citizen of porto alegre is the transfer
and in this space we develop a
series of joints to connect
people and institutions to think about
solutions to complex problems
that the city lives often does not know
is misunderstood
we need to work more and more
this diminution of language so that
we can mark a diversity
people well beyond the
the transfer already conquered in Brazil and
even out of Brazil
the transfer is a place of the exercise of
learning collaboration
I understand that today the diversity of
projects that are being developed
within this context linked projects
to education conscious consumption
architecture and urbanism linked projects
sustainable fashion social innovation
all these issues contribute
so that we can understand
more and more how we collaborate
I understand that solutions for
complex problems will not come from
large organizations
the solutions to the problems
complexes
we will come from our ability to
articulate and relate to another
way we get space
creation
Today I understand that more and more people
has an aseptic relationship with the
territories and caring
to approach
we need to understand, after all ,
what affects us
in the territory how many of us
they invest creation time to
able to do things in relation to
process of transformation of the
territory to the problems that
daily affect how many of us
the transfer and certainly not
alone today we recognize a
network of collaborative houses that
way how trump the abc comes
developing dynamics of
collaboration in their own way
today there are more than 10 houses
developing collaborative and
I understand that these spaces
they provide healing dynamics
the territory he has a knowledge
deep
of territory-type needs
need and achieve a certain way
articulate new dynamics of innovation
and social transformation
for this I think that from the point of
view of governments
the government would need much more
proximity to these spaces but not to
proximity to mark presence in
close proximity to the creative one
closeness that is part of the agenda
dynamic creation policy with
much less exclusivistic today is not
thinks more city favoring a
territory in relation to the other
learning it is much more powerful
in the complexity of the territory and
least prioritizing
incentive for specific territories
companies provide value
economic more companies connect
in collaborative houses
I understand that today the models of
businesses that are more innovative than
may be wanting to visualize then
being prototype inside the houses
collaborative and are the new centers
innovation that companies could
be composing the universities
she understood the value of this type of
space contributes to a
future transformation of the city already
are their own partners already
received several academic papers
on all levels that we can
wanting to imagine here and I am part
of web sites is a laboratory that
I allow myself to produce knowledge in
relation to this area also the
citizen citizen principal actor all
innovation is focused on the
the whole of the needs of the
real problems that we live
houses need to prepare and
working better and better opening
to receive the citizen needs
creative processes
today the collaborative houses they
working in government facilitation
university
companies work in this
building this creative dialogue
I think that collaborative houses
they need to be careful not to
institutionalized in others if
become formal institutions
we will lose the free interaction
that you have today is that for me it’s one of the
main ingredients to develop
new dynamics of creation and
appropriation in relation to
territory and finally always a choice
we participate in these processes and
to develop a new dynamic
world view to achieve composing
along with people so different
seems to delegate to third parties
the construction of solutions that
our lives is not only a posture
omit
but mainly the distancing of
feel the transformation of that thank you
