Visualizing Yerevan
... is part of Visualizing Memory, an multimedia urban memory project, which employs novel visualization methods to explore the urban memory landscape from Berlin to Bishkek. In cooperation with the Heinrich Boell Foundation Yerevan Office- South Caucasus Region the Berlin-based NGO NIDID - New Ideas for Development, Identity and Democracy will turn in the project sequel to the capital of the Republic of Armenia.
The aim of our kick-off workshop held between August 31 and September 4, 2021 in Yerevan is to forge a 'fresh' perspective on the history of the city and foster a critical discussion on the impact of present-day urban transformations on the historical legacy of the city. The workshop comrises input seminars with video producers, multimedia curators and academic researchers on urban issues and visualization methods, ethnographic explorations, sensory sociology approaches and alternative city tours by local urban experts.
Together we want to identify the most pressing urban challenges and reflect on different visions of an alternative future city ingrained in the material layers of the present-day city.
