Manage episode 353692413 series 2921479
Discover how architecture can unite communities divided by an international border.
Political theorist Fonna Forman and architect and visual artist Teddy Cruz talk about Manufactured Sites, an architectural project based on the flow of material waste between border cities in the United States and Mexico. Tires, garage doors, and even entire homes make their way from San Diego to Tijuana, where migrants seeking entry into the US reconfigure the parts into emergency housing. But the project doesn’t stop there—it also presents new possibilities for safer emergency housing. In this Ten-Minutes podcast, we hear about the ways communities can collaborate across international borders and the possibility of creating a safe home for everyone.
