  1. Risk and Crisis Management

    Risk and Crisis Management

    Faced with more and more unfamiliar hazards, planners and governments want to know whether their preparations are sufficient. Citizens are increasingly asking the same questions. We hear from Dr Hitomi Nakanishi (University of Canberra) and Dr Sarah Wise (UCL CASA) on how new kinds of simulation can be used to help people understand evacuation, and how different approaches to crisis management might produce different outcomes. We also hear from Rangga Wargadalam, a PhD student at the University of Canberra who also works for Indonesia's National Development Planning Ministry, on the future use of simulations as an analysis tool by government agencies, and how it can be used to help develop more data-driven planning policies. ___ GUESTS: Dr Hitomi Nakanishi: https://researchprofiles.canberra.edu.au/en/persons/hitomi-nakanishi https://twitter.com/hitominakanishi (twitter) Dr Sarah Wise: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/casa/dr-sarah-wise twitter.com/ComplexityWise (twitter) Rangga Wargadalam: (National Planning Ministry, Indonesia & PhD Student, University of Canberra) ___ GLOBAL LAB TEAM: Presenter & Interviewer: Dr Thomas Oléron-Evans https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/casa/people/dr-thomas-oleron-evans twitter.com/Mathistopheles (twitter) www.mathistopheles.co.uk (personal website) Presenter & Editor: Dr Leah Lovett https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/casa/people/leah-lovett twitter.com/leahlovett (twitter) http://www.leahlovett.co.uk (personal website)

  2. Seeing Cities

    21.10.2019

    Seeing Cities

    Our theme for this episode is “Seeing Cities”. We hear about two very different ways of looking at a city, making connections across space and time, and allowing us to understand the urban environment and its history in new and unexpected ways. We visited Queen Mary University to talk to two art historians whose work is bound up with these issues. We hear from Hannah Williams, on how digital mapping has allowed her to unearth surprising patterns in the art world of eighteenth century Paris (www.artistsinparis.org), and from Emilie Oléron Evans, on the unique perspective that the art and architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner brought to the buildings of England. Links related to each of our guests may be found below. ___ GUESTS: Hannah Williams: twitter.com/DrHanWill (twitter) www.hannahwilliams.me.uk (website) www.artistsinparis.org (Artists in Paris) Emilie Oléron Evans: twitter.com/bringyourownsun (twitter) https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nikolaus-Pevsner-arpenteur-arts-britannique/dp/2354570880/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Nikolaus+Pevsner%2C+arpenteur+des+arts&qid=1571395200&s=books&sr=1-1 (book on Pevsner) tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13602365.2014.930755 (A.

  3. The Sound of the Strikes

    The Sound of the Strikes

    In February and March, many Universities across the United Kingdom were affected by the largest wave of industrial action to hit the sector for many years. For this episode of the Global Lab, we spoke to Tony Brown and Sean Wallis from UCL's University and College Union branch about why the strikes took place. To give you a sense of what it felt like to be out on the streets during the dispute, we conducted interviews on the picket line and made binaural audio recordings of the two marches that took place in central London during the strikes. Binaural recordings are recorded using two microphones to create the illusion of a 3D soundscape. Best listened to on headphones… --- Produced by Valerio Signorelli and Duncan Hay ---
