| Summary |
Die zunehmende Akkumulation von Menschen in geschichtslosen Wohnmaschinen, die Herausforderungen durch Migration und Platzmangel aktualisieren den Bedarf für ein neues Denken und Handeln in öffentlichen Räumen. SUPERSUIT ist ein interdisziplinäres Experiment an der Grenze zwischen Mensch und Raum. Er ist ein Werkzeug für poetische Interventionen in unterschiedlichen urbanen Situationen, lädt zur Partizipation ein und hinterfragt die Beziehung von Mensch, Raum und Stadt in sinnlicher Form. Als Marker öffentlichen Raumes antworten die spontan entstehenden Formen des SUPERSUIT unmittelbar auf Parameter des urbanen Kontexts. SUPERSUIT ermöglicht über performative Interventionen die Veränderung aktueller Designprozesse und die Konzeption neuer Mensch-Material-Konstellationen. |

The increasing accumulation of people in living machines without history and the challenges presented by migration and the lack of space provoke a need for new thinking and acting in public spaces. SUPERSUIT is an interdisciplinary experiment at the demarcation between people and space. It is a tool for poetic interventions in a range of different urban situations that invites participation and queries the relationship between people, space and city in terms of sense perception. As a marker of public space, the spontaneously arising forms of SUPERSUIT respond directly to the parameters of urban context. Using the means of 'performative interventions' SUPERSUIT facilitates a change in current design processes and the conceptualizing of new people/material constellations. |
