Podcast: The Dreaming City/Glasgow 2020

Posted by Charlie Tims at 3:13pm on Friday, 21st December 2007


Glasgow 2020 was a project to imagine the future of Glasgow through storytelling, wish-making and a series of discussions with people across Glasgow. I know this sounds cheesy, but we tried to focus on 'imagination' rather 'consultation'. The project trod a thin dividing line between political representation, and cultural expression. Basically i'm not sure if a load of stories, wishes and discussions can be considered to democratically 'represent' the entire populous of a city, but at the very least such activities can improve the relationship between the governors and the governed. Anyway, Glasgow became a book called The Dreaming City which we launched last summer. Here's a podcast we recorded about it a couple of weeks ago.
