Felix and Rebecca are researching the two berlin model projects, Haus der Statistik and Rathausblock Kreuzberg, since the beginning of 2022. Being initially engaged in the projects themselves, they now want to use the connection to the Humboldt University of Berlin and the Chair of Urban Anthropology to reflect co*laboratively and inventively on questions of collaboration, controversies, and modeling and bring them into the projects.

Rebecca Wall studied architecture and urban design in Weimar and Hamburg. As an urban practitioner, she works and researches at the intersection of activist, artistic, and spatial urban production. In collaboration with self-organized initiatives, public administration and politics, she develops experimental formats for the collaborative production of space. Since January 2022, she is a research associate at the Chair of Urban Anthropology at the Humboldt University of Berlin, conducting research on model projects of cooperative, community-oriented urban development.

Felix Marlow is an urban anthropologist. Felix studied Architecture and Urbanism at HCU Hamburg and European Ethnology at HU Berlin. Felix is interested in how practices of care and solidarity can be supported via urbanist interventions. Felix worked as ambassador at WERKSTATT Haus der Statistik, translating between urban publics and an experimental urban development process. Recently, Felix shifted his mode of involvement in this project – now being member of the Urban Development via Public Civic Partnerships research team at HU Berlin. Apart from that, Felix likes people, the sea, and not being woken up.

Ignacio Farías works at the crossroads of social and cultural anthropology, science and technology studies and urban studies. His research focuses on infrastructural and environmental transformations of European and Latin American cities and the political and democratic challenges these transformations entail. His current work explores the urban politics of airborne disruptions, involving heat, noise and radio waves, as well as current experiments in civic-led common-good oriented urban development projects. He is interested in experimenting with ethnography as an inventive practice of city-making performed with others (designers, initiatives, concerned groups, policy makers) and by other means (moving from textual to material productions).
