乙城節2010-City Speak IX-Street Culture: Art + Design + Activism

第九回City Speak:Street Culture: Art + Design + Activism(由Fringe Club與Designing Hong Kong合辦),探討香港的街頭文化的種種層面,大至整個城市的街道整體規劃、一條天橋的建造,小至一塊路標指示牌的設計、公園里的一張凳子,講者引用眾多我們日常體驗香港街頭文化活生生的例子來論證,觀眾多有同感。

是次City Speak,參與的講者和觀眾人數都是歷次之最,輕松自由的交流環境更為本次講座倍添生色!



路牌的設計是一個城市街頭文化的最直觀的標記之一。


講者和聽眾直面而坐,輕松交流


講座氣氛非常隨意自在,觀眾可坐可站,或靠著吧臺自由表達自己的意見,渴了就飲杯野。



觀眾很專心地看講者準備的ppt內容。



很close的交流氣氛。
