2016 AA上海暑期工作营
城市特异性

2016年7月15-23日
In an era of unprecedented city building, the 10th consecutive AA Shanghai Summer School will focus on issues related to urbanization in China. The central government of China has recently announced both the Southern China Metropolis (pop. 45 million), and Jing-Jin-Ji Supercity (pop. 130 million). Shanghai, the epicenter of the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) metropolitan region (pop. 90m), serves as the programme’s laboratory for the study of the complexities of the contemporary city within this context of massive urbanisation. Given the pervasive legacy of assembly-based repetitive production paradigms, and the monotonous, generic effects of standardization on cities, we will address the question of what makes a city unique. In response, we will delve into design methods by which to shape specific urban characteristics and identities across scales. AAVS Shanghai has persistently championed computational approaches applied to the problematic of the twenty-first century city. As an intensive nine-day studio-based course, AAVS SH will engage experimentally with advanced computational design, to develop a methodological toolbox with which to confront the prevalence of generic, ubiquitous urbanism.
在空前的城市建设之际，第十届AA上海暑期工作营将集中关注中国的城市化。近期中国中央政府宣布了南方都会（4500万人口）和京津冀城市群（1亿3000万人口）建设的概念。在大规模的城市化背景下，作为长三角州城市群（9000万人口）中心的上海将成为本次项目的实验室，以学习当代城市的复杂性。基于组装的重复性生产模型以及城市在标准化生产影响下表现出的单调相似性，我们将研究是什么使得城市有特性，并在多个尺度上探索赋予城市特异性的设计方法。AA上海访校一直以来十分重视应用于二十一世纪城市问题的数字化设计方式。作为时长九天的高强度设计工作坊，上海AAVS将实验性地探究高阶数字化设计并发展系统的设计工具，以应对普遍同一性的城市化进程。
