The C4/C6 lectures consist of different (international) speakers, themes and cases each year, in which the relationships and interaction between theory, society and design are revealed. This semester, you are warmly invited to join the lectures through a livestream.

Time as a phenomenon
by Andrew Segrave

The decisions people make, and the actions they take, depend on how they experience and conceptualize time. This fundamental and influential factor is seldom acknowledged, little understood, and rarely considered explicitly in planning; be that for material systems or governance systems. We will explore some of the similarities and differences in the Time Perspectives of people working in different roles in different countries and discuss how this temporal ambiguity influences, and can be used for, public design, urban planning and architecture.
