Hybrid Cities: interviewing Roger Malina, Mariateresa Sartori & Bryan Connell

Dr. Malina helped found IMéRA (Institut méditerranéen de recherches avancées), a Marseille-based institution nurturing collaboration between the arts and sciences. Mariateresa Sartori and Bryan Connell are two artists recently based at IMéRA. Their work connects with human movement through the city, and addresses the intersection between technology and perception. Recent work by Venice-based Mariateresa Sartori has encompassed drawing and video. Bryan Connell, Exhibit/Project Developer at San Francisco’s Exploratorium, works especially with landscape observation devices and mapping. Lawrence Bird interviewed them for Furtherfield about the intersection of their work with the city. http://alturl.com/d6qmj Lawrence Bird is a designer, instructor and writer with an interest in cities and their image.
