The High Line - stedsidentitet
No full textThe High Line en 2,3 km lang park, bygget et nedlagt højbanespor, der 30 fod over Manhattans gader smyger sig fra Gansevoort Street på Lower West Side, til den nordligste del på 34th Street. Med en humanistisk geografiske forståelsen, hvor sted anses som et mangefacetteret og oplevede fænomen, der tager form når det subjektive sanseapparat indtræder, undersøges the High Line, med hensigten af nærmes en forståelse for stedets identitet. Den humanistisk geografiske begrebsliggørelse af sted og stedsidentitet, udgør den primære teoretiske indgangsvinkel. Denne suppleres dog men en sammenkobling af hvorledes stedets ikke-repræsentationelle faktorer medspiller i formelsen af den subjektive meningstillæggelse. Med Non-repræsentationel teori inddrages således både affekt, stemninger, transpersonlige forhold og en post humanistisk vægtning. Igennem et tre måneders feltarbejde studeres stedet med afsæt i den kvalitative erkendelsestradition, i en teoretisk funderet elementopdeling, af stedets fysisk fremtoning, stedet aktivitet, stedet menings- og betydningstillæggelser samt vedvarende fokus på de non-repræsentationelle faktorer. Igennem analysen fremskrives de særegenheder der empirisk viser sig, og slutteligt sammenkobles disse i en analyse af de essentielle særegenheder der fremstår i the High Line park.The High Line en 2,3 km lang park, bygget et nedlagt højbanespor, der 30 fod over Manhattans gader smyger sig fra Gansevoort Street på Lower West Side, til den nordligste del på 34th Street.

Citizens revolt about Vandgrunden: site analysis
No full textDen 24. marts 2021 blev et planforslag fra Vallensbæk Kommune, vedrørende opførelse af seniorboliger på et mindre naturområde kaldet Vandgrunden, ændret på grund af modstand fra en lokal gruppe af borgere.Formålet med denne undersøgelse er at undersøge årsagerne til modstanden og oprøret fra borgerne, og hvordan de har kunnet ændre kommunens plan for området. Ved at bruge et moderne menneskelig geografisk perspektiv på begrebet sted har en række forskellige undersøgelser og feltarbejde resulteret i en byanalyse, der viser stedets unikke karakteristika og kvaliteter, for at forstå borgerens årsager til deres opstand. Endvidere er der lavet en dokumentanalyse for at udforske borgerens afstemning om planforslaget. Undersøgelsen munder ud i en analyse, der diskuterer borgernes sted og modmagt i forhold til kommunikativ planlægning og herunder et ret til byperspektivet. Undersøgelsen konkluderer, at de borgere, som har haft indflydelse på, hvordan borgerne har fået den kommunikative magt, har brugt deres kommunikative rationalitet i deres handlinger i konflikten og dermed fremstår som en modmagt til kommunen.24th of marts 2021 a plan proposal from Vallensbæk Municipality, regarding the construction of se- nior housing on a smaller natural area called Vandgrunden, was changed due to resistance from a local group of citizens.The purpose of this study is to investigate the reasons for the resistance and uprising from the citi- zens, and how they were able to change the municipality’s plan for the area. Using a modern human geographical perspective of the concept of place a variety of research and fieldwork has resulted in an urban analysis, showing the unique characteristics and qualities of the place, to understand the citizen's reasons for their uprising. Furthermore, a document analysis has been made to explore the citizen's vote on the plan proposal. The investigation results in an analysis discussing the place and the counter-power of the citizens, in relation to communicative planning and including a right to the city perspective. The study concludes that the citizens, who have had an influence on how the citizens have gained the communicative power, have used their communicative rationality in their actions in the conflict and thus appear as a counter-power to the municipality
The School's Soundscape: An Ethnographic Study of Soundscapes and Behavior in School Common Areas: An Ethnographic Study of Soundscapes and Behavior in School Common Areas
No full textDette speciale undersøger lydlandskabers indflydelse på adfærd og rumlig opfattelse i skolemiljøer med fokus på fællesområder på to udvalgte skoler i København: Skolen i Sydhavnen og Sluseholmen Skole. Historisk set har lyd spillet en væsentlig rolle i at forme menneskets oplevelse af rum, men arkitektonisk praksis har ofte prioriteret det visuelle frem for det auditive. Ved at anvende en etnografisk tilgang inspireret af sensoriske studier udforsker specialet, hvordan auditive oplevelser i skoler påvirker elevers interaktioner og trivsel. Specialet trækker på R. Murray Schafers begreb om lydlandskaber, Barry Blesser og Linda-Ruth Salters koncept om auditiv arkitektur, Maurice Merleau-Pontys kropsfænomenologi, Steen Eiler Rasmussens indsigt i arkitekturens fysiske egenskaber og Kirsten Simonsens perspektiv på den kropslige og narrative by. Undersøgelsen fremhæver de sensoriske dimensioner af arkitektonisk erfaring og argumenterer for en holistisk evalueringsmetode, der går ud over blot måling af decibel. Feltarbejde, herunder observationer, interviews og lydoptagelser, afslører mønstre i adfærd og sociale interaktioner påvirket af lydlandskabet. Resultaterne understreger potentialet for, at lydlandskaber kan fungere som et centralt designelement og tilbyder indsigter relevante for arkitekter, planlæggere og pædagoger i at skabe rum, der understøtter både interaktion og koncentration. Specialet opfordrer til en udvidet arkitektonisk terminologi, der bedre formidler de sensoriske påvirkninger af lyd i uddannelsesmiljøer.This thesis investigates the influence of soundscapes on behavior and spatial perception in school environments, focusing on shared areas in two selected schools in Copenhagen: Skolen i Sydhavnen and Sluseholmen Skole. Historically, sound has played a significant role in shaping human experience of space, yet architectural practice has often emphasized visual aesthetics over auditory design. Employing an ethnographic approach inspired by sensory studies, this thesis explores how auditory experiences in schools impact students' interactions and well-being. This thesis draws on R. Murray Schafer’s concept of soundscapes, Barry Blesser and Linda-Ruth Salter’s notion of aural architecture, Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology of the body, Steen Eiler Rasmussen’s insights on the physical properties of architecture, and Kirsten Simonsen’s perspective on the embodied and narrative city. This study highlights the sensory dimensions of architectural experience, advocating for a holistic evaluation approach that transcends mere decibel measures. Fieldwork, including observations, interviews, and sound recordings, reveals patterns in behaviors and social interactions influenced by soundscape. The findings emphasize the potential for soundscapes to serve as a critical design element, offering insights relevant to architects, planners, and educators on creating spaces that support both interaction and concentration. This thesis ultimately calls for an expanded architectural vocabulary that better articulates the sensory impacts of sound in educational environments
Demokratisk borgerinddragelse i Klimatilpasning Kokkedal: Democratic involvement of citizens in Klimatilpasning Kokkedal
No full textDemocratic involvement of citizens in Klimatilpasning Kokkedal Abstract Democratic involvement of citizens is examined on the basis of Klimatilpasning Kokkedal. The climate project was started in 2011 as a result of flooding caused by cloudbursts in 2007 and 2010. In this project it is questioned to which extent the citizens in Kokkedal has had influence on the climate project and which added social value the involvement of citizens is able to create in a local community. To answer this it will be sought to account for what defines Kokkedal as a town and what the climate adaption implies along with which visions and considerations has been made in the city planning. The conditions that Fredensborg municipality has had, regarding involvement of citizens in Kokkedal and which consequences the involvement has had for the development of the community, will be analysed. Also, it will be discussed whether involvement of citizens is possible in modern urban renewal and climate adaption. This will be sought answered with, Robert Putnam’s theory regarding social capital, John Andersen’s theory regarding empowerment and power structures, empirical data in the form of interviews with the leader of and an employee on the project, and material from the involvement of citizens process and documents from Klimatilpasning Kokkedal. It can be concluded that a tendency, explained as New Public Management, has shown that residents should be seen as users of society’s offers, rather than citizens in a society. The involvement of citizens can help in interacting between technical possibilities and local terms. This means that the municipality, citizens and resident associations, together need to develop the town and create new social solutions in climate adaption. Prior to this, there has to be a strong network between the residents. Kokkedal however lacks this. To define, the extent of the involvement of citizens in Kokkedal is not entirely possible but the municipality can use involvement of citizens to set the foundation to gather the town. However, it is not guaranteed that the citizens will take the initiative to do so. The municipality does pass on information about the project through associations, but these are not necessarily visible enough to the public. Experience from this project can be brought on to other projects alike that uses involvement of citizens as a resource.Democratic involvement of citizens in Klimatilpasning Kokkedal Abstract Democratic involvement of citizens is examined on the basis of Klimatilpasning Kokkedal.

No full textTeknologisk udvikling af proteser: Technological development of prosthesis
No full textThe purpose of this paper is to study and analyze the factors that come together to push the technology that develops prosthetic limbs. We will examine, on a broad scale, both the ethical and subjective stances, taken on technological development of prosthetics. We will also assess prosthetics, from the earliest, until today's, examining their practical, social and personal ramifications. Finally we will seek to illustrate and bridge the problem of developing a prosthetic limb that is both functional and capable of being distributed to as many as possible.The purpose of this paper is to study and analyze the factors that come together to push the technology that develops prosthetic limbs.
