CSI Concept

City Space Investigators (CSI) is the first series in which we organize workshops and excursions for students and professionals in the field of urbanism and architecture. We collaborate with local academia, commercial professionals, politicians and locals users to provide our participants a diverse frame of reference in the places we visit. We work closely with artists in a search for new ways to represent the changing modes of urban dynamics.

CSI Workshops

The Parallel Worlds Program is the current workshop agenda of the CSI project. The first CSI: Parallel Worlds workshop has taken place in New York in April 2008. And the next workshop is scheduled for April 2009 in São Paulo (Brazil) followed by the two-country metropolis Kinshasa/Brazaville (Congo).
