Dopo la fine del progetto HORTUS, è nata una collaborazione fra lo studio LANDSCAPECAFE’ ARCHITETCS, le associazioni locali e l’Universita’ del Texas A&M.

Una volta conclusasi l’esperienza di Hortus, si è realizzato un workshop con la collaborazione dell’università america TEXAS A&M. Gli studenti della facoltà di architettura si sono cimentati nell’individuazione di punti sensibili… (MORE)

INTERVENIRE CON AZIONI (HOP – Happening Ostia Ponente)
Il lavoro realizzato sta trovando forma nelle azioni di animazione. Si tratta di interventi sperimentali che vogliono essere stimoli al rinnovamento relazionale tra luogo e persone. Azioni che determinano segni, tracce che nelle aree margine costituiscono la prima struttura di riqualificazione, orientando gli strumenti urbanistici e le future trasformazioni. Hop-Happening Ostia Ponente, ha avuto luogo nel mese di Ottobre, con la collaborazione della Texas University e del centro “Affabulazione”.

PROGETTARE IL CAMBIAMENTO (POP – project ostia ponente)
POP [Project Ostia Ponente]
Phase 1. Ends 301 students, remaining in their original workshop groups will be asked to examine one specific issue per student pertaining to the site documentation from the WOP explorations, that were marked by their color balloons.
Phase 1 requires students to identify 6 specific site locations that were most illustrative of their many discoveries within the site. These will be combined with 6 out of 12 existing typologies provided by the workshop organizers (see list below)which infringe or act on the wildlife preserve’s perimeter and its urban fringes.
The process, here referred to as Active Actors and Re-Actors sites,(AAReA sites) are to be conceived as constantly interplaying and interacting subjects that influence over time and space the dynamic context of the site. Like a Billiard game, where 12 balls strike each other and the perimeter of the Pool table, these Para-sites should be able to act and re-act to each other at any given moment in the life-span of the project.
Transforming Ostia Ponente. Active Actors, Re-Actors Sites:
1. Fishermen: A. Goals: increasing access to the river, to have access to the banks. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: none.
2. River workers, (boatmen, associations for marine schools, etc): A. Goals: greater access to the river to be able to intensify the relationship between inhabitants and tourists. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: none.
3. Cultural Associations related to River Activities (Marine Schools, similar): A. Goals: increased access to the river to intensify connections further along the banks. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: none.
4. Naval yards: A. goals: Enlarge and reinforce their economic status, (through the construction of sail boats and luxury craft). B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: the last open area was purchased to make another naval yard, in effect blocking all access to the river.
5. Cycling Associations: A. Goal: a cycle path that would cross the site and permit pleasure access to the Ostia Ponente area. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: none.
6. Homeless: A. Goal: to live in the place of their choice, without being disturbed. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: spontaneous interventions, throughout the site, leaving traces, evidence of their presence.
7. LIPU (Lega Italiana Protezione Uccelli): A. Goal: Transform the area into a Natural Oasis. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: phased series of interventions, several complete, and in the process of completion.
8. Local Inhabitants: A. Goal: Create a more consolidated relationship with the River, and with numerous areas of “memory” that are part of the site, (Michelangelo’s S. Michele Tower, the Lipu Park, port, fishing village). B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: none.
9. Students: A. Goals: to be defined. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: Hop, October 8, 2008
10. Marina port: A. Goals: to be defined. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: none.
11. PASOLINI Culture Park: A. Goal: To be defined. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: the development of the Park has been assigned to LIPU.
12. Local Associations: A. Goals: to bring attention to the unusual characteristics of the territory, its history, cultural and recreational landmarks, and potential. B. Upcoming interventions planned to date: none.
