    Future Cities - Guest: Angelika Hinterbrandner

    In our fourth episode of "Fighting 40%" we talk about the future of cities from the aspects of politics, density, mobility and participation. What should be the goals for young architects in the future? It's time to question "non-negotiable truths" in architecture and to fundamentally rethink the practice. Our guest Angelika Hinterbrandner works as a freelance editor, project manager and digital strategist—mainly but not exclusively—in the field of architecture. Her works deal with the influence of the economy, digitalization and politics on space. She studied architecture at the Graz University of Technology and at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, gained experience as an architect while working for MVRDV, Buchner Bründler Architekten or Brandlhuber+ and is part of Kontextur, a digital magazine spinning around architecture. Tuesday, 13th July, 8pm on 104.8fm and campusradio-karlsruhe.de

    Urban Mining - Guest: Prof. Dirk Hebel

    Since the post-war period, we have been surrounded by an anthropogenic  warehouse of over 50 billion tons of material. This warehouse grows  every year by another 10 tons per inhabitant. Much of it is located in  buildings. Wouldn’t this warehouse be a potential resource for the  construction industry of the future? In the new episode of Fighting 40%-Podcast is this the question we discuss with our guest Professor  Dirk Hebel. Tuesday, 8 p.m. on stream and UKW 104.8.
