In the face of climate change and overcrowded roads, one thing is clear: we need to change our mobility behavior. To achieve this, people must become the focus of urban design. Like here on the Max-Josef Bridge in Munich. The contrast could not be greater: between the 8-lane road at the huge intersection and the lively urban utopia with a view directly onto the Isar. Designed for the MCube future cluster by Hamburg artist Jan Kamensky, who describes himself as a visual utopian. He playfully transforms car-friendly streets into people-friendly places, triggering a new awareness among viewers. They experience their neighborhood as car-free, green and worth living in. Afterwards, they return to reality with a sharpened view. With these utopian videos, Jan Kamensky wants to change the way we look at our way of life. First and foremost, they aim to expand the viewer's awareness and question their own mobility behavior. The feasibility of the utopias is of secondary importance.
These three Munich utopias was made possible by Jan Kamensky in collaboration with the future cluster MCube and its close partner Digital Hub Mobility by UnternehmerTUM.
The lessons learned from the first MCube funding phase show which factors really drive projects forward - and where typical barriers arise.
Creating transparency, proving impact, sharpening strategies - the new indicator guide supports precisely this.
For the first time in this format, students made their way to three European cities. They went to Stockholm, Tallinn/Helsinki and Barcelona.
This time, mobility in the cities of Ljubljana, Genoa and Utrecht was examined.
How can mobility data and simulations make cities more liveable - and change visible and tangible?
What do Brussels, Lisbon, Milan and Paris have in common?
Where to put cars, bicycles and e-scooters - and how do we organize parking space fairly, efficiently and sustainably?

What is MOSAIQ?
Imagine something: There is more space for people. The streets have more trees and plants. Everyone can get around better. That's how your Schwabing-West district could be in the future. How would you like your district to be? We want to talk to you about it!
The project is called MOSAIQ. MOSAIQ is a research∙project. MOSAIQ means: Mobility and urban climate in the future city∙part. The Technical University of Munich is leading the project.
What is MOSAIQ about?
MOSAIQ wants to make the streets in the city∙part more beautiful. People should feel comfortable there. There should be more space. For meetings and plants, for example. You can help decide what is tried out in the Stadt∙teil. The ideas come from you. Some ideas will be tried out on the streets for a certain period of time.
The aim of MOSAIQ is to make urban districts good places to live.
At the same time, the climate in the city should improve. And people should be able to move around the city easily.
What is happening in the district?
