The DNA of Cities

We know that there are over 10,000 cities in the world. We also know that there is something unique about every city. But what is it that makes each city feel, move, look and act so differently? In this podcast, Professor Greg Clark CBE and Caitlin Morrissey bring together over 70 inspirational leaders from the worlds of urban history, politics, art, architecture and more to decode The DNA of Cities.

    Keynote - Ben Wilson - Part II

    We are back with Part II of our conversation with Ben Wilson, our first Keynote guest. Ben is the author of several acclaimed books, including Metropolis which was released in 2020 and Urban Jungle which was published in 2023.  In Part II of his Keynote, Ben sets out a compelling case for nurturing nature in cities. We discuss the: Forgotten histories of growing and foraging in cities Opportunities for cities of the future to be defined by how biodiverse and wild they are Requirement for agile, flexible and adaptive urban leadership that combines community energy with a guiding vision – What are the Keynotes? These are the episodes where we zoom out from our city-to-city voyage to meet global expert voices from a range of different disciplinary vantage points (e.g. from history, to theology, to genetics, to archaeology, to design) to understand the place of cities in their work. We want to know how they would approach and investigate the relationship between cities and human experience and evolution.  – Bass Vibes - Rollin at 5 by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100462 – Sound design by Dainius Kacinskas.

    Keynote - Ben Wilson - Part I

    We are honoured to have historian Ben Wilson as our first Keynote guest. Ben is the author of several acclaimed books, including Metropolis which was released in 2020 and Urban Jungle which was published in 2023.  In Part I of this global adventure spanning 5,000 years of urbanisation, Ben reveals: How cities rewire humans biologically, culturally and socially both individually and collectively Why the permanence of human settlement in cities catalyses innovation The innate duality of cities as places of opportunity and hardship, brute and beauty, enchantment and horror – What are the Keynotes? These are the episodes where we zoom out from our city-to-city voyage to meet global expert voices from a range of different disciplinary vantage points (e.g. from history, to theology, to genetics, to archaeology, to design) to understand the place of cities in their work.

    The DNA of Kyiv - Part II

    In Part II of The DNA of Kyiv, we learn about the people who live in Kyiv and the strong feelings the city stirs within those who choose to make it their home. We discover what it means to be and become a Kyivan, and we explore the manifestations of the common struggle for cultural freedom and self-government in the city's protests and revolutions. Against the backdrop of war in Ukraine and amid possible air-raid sirens, power-blackouts and the threat of Russian missile strikes, our local experts spoke about how Kyiv has been responding to the full-scale invasion and enduring under more than 1,000 days of war. They told us how the trauma of war has scarred the city, and their dreams for the future of the city.  With special thanks to Denys Nazarenko, Dr Victoria Itskovych, Professor Serhy Yekelchyk, Yulia Bevzenko and Stanislav Kukhtyk for joining us in this episode, and to Denys for the invitation to explore Kyiv in this season of the podcast.

    The DNA of Kyiv - Part I

    We were privileged to be invited by Denys Nazarenko of Kyiv City Council to include his beloved city in The DNA of Cities following the devastating full scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. We might think of Kyiv as an ancient city in a turbulent present in which its citizens have been actively fighting for more than 1,000 days to defend Ukrainian independence, freedom and sovereignty from Russia. In this episode, we explore the birth of Kyiv as a city and its historical role as the main centre in the Kyivan Rus, an extremely large federation that gave rise to what we now recognise as the Eastern Slavic States of Ukraine, Russia and Belarus.  We are incredibly grateful to Denys Nazarenko, Dr Victoria Itskovych, Professor Serhy Yekelchyk and Yulia Bevzenko for joining us in this episode. We learnt so much from each of them. To learn more about The DNA of Cities and to read each of our interviews in full, head to www.thednaofcities.com.

    What does The DNA of Cities not explain?

    In our final episode of Season 1, we ask our urban experts ‘what does The DNA of Cities not yet explain about how cities evolve?’ We debate the limits of The DNA of Cities and what it is that cannot be explained using this way of exploring, conceptualising and understanding urban identity.  Thank you to Professor Michele Acuto, A/Professor Ellie Cosgrave, Gabriella Gómez-Mont, Professor Edgar Pieterse, Dr Jaana Remes, Dr Karissa Sanbonmatsu and Geerte Udo for joining us in this episode. We also hear from Abha Joshi-Ghani, who we dedicate this season to with great respect and affection. Whether this is the first episode you have listened to this season, or you have been with us from the beginning, thank you for tuning in.  We will be back soon!  To learn more about The DNA of Cities and sign up for our latest updates visit www.thednaofcities.com
