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 between the 8-lane road at the huge intersection and the lively urban utopia with a view directly onto the Isar could not be greater. 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 cooperation with the future cluster MCube and its close partners Digital Hub Mobility by UnternehmerTUM.
