BRAIN CITY
|
SMART
BRAIN Is not a digital computer. It doesn’t matter how powerful or smart it is. It matters what he does with the information it gets. CITY Is not so important to define how smart it is. What matters is what the city does with the data / information. |
HARDWARE
BRAIN The brain has no hardware. Is not fix and always changes. CITY It is not hardware, so adapts to different situations. The city has it deals with errors and imperfections. So, it necessary to the city gets active and has to adapt. |
EXPERIENCE
BRAIN Brains maps are always experience dependent. Is impossible to imagine a new color. CITY The experience the city is defined in the data maps. You have new experiences because you are part of the data city. |
DATA
BRAIN It reacts to any data or any stimulus it gets. So, the source of the data does not matter. There are several ways of getting data into the brain: vibrations on the skin/shocks in the tongue/direct activations of neurons. CITY Big data does not define the city as it always changes. What matters is what we do with the data. The data of the city can be studied in many ways. Sociopolitics, big data, engineering, artistic… |
SUBSTITUTION
BRAIN Is possible to have sensory substitution. For example, you can see through the touch feeling. You have to concentrate to understands this substitution but afterwards it is intuitive. Sensory substitution. Is hopeless to imagine a new color CITY Is difficult/impossible to imagine the city with a wheelchair it until you have to live with it. Is a substitution of how you experience normaly. When you go with a wheelchair, you live the city in another way more attuned with accessibility design. At the beginning is hard to live the city with a wheelchair but latter you get used to it and gets normal. |
FLOW
BRAIN The brain is a flow system what make it a very efficient machine. CITY The city is a flow system. Data is never fix. NEW
BRAIN The brain is hungry for new sources of information and new stimulus. CITY The city is healthy when it looks for novelty and new situations. |
PLASTICITY
BRAIN Is an ever-changing system. Is plastic which means is incessant changing. Plasticity diminishes over the year but it is still present. Adult plasticity exist. CITY The city is plastic. Is adaptable to anything. In the city you can change a building but not change the city performance. |

EMOTIONS
BRAIN Emotions reflect the meaning of data to you. CITY Data does not change our experience of the city, how we interpret this data defines our city experience. Data is not good or bad but is when we analyzed it and critique it we set the differences and we compare with other cities. So, data is not so important but what we do with it. BODY
BRAIN If you have a brain, you can build a new body. CITY Is important to have a city, in order to build the countryside and the outskirts. CHANGE
BRAIN Our brains change depending the languages it uses. Japanese have a difficulty understanding the R and L. The neural landscape is defined by its immediate environment. CITY The city can change depending on how much we know the city. A more architectural social preoccupation makes better architecture. POWER
BRAIN The brain is counterbalance of forces. CITY The city has to do a counterbalance of powers. It tries to keep the system composed, equilibrated and ready to make change. ARM
BRAIN Brain injuries are more dangerous for elderly people than young people. Young people are more plastic. Our Brain can easily settle parts and developed new tasks. CITY Old cities are more difficult to change than new ones. SPEED OF PLASTICITY
BRAIN Changes in the brain is through synapsis, cortical change, neurogenesis and accidents. What is called plasticity. Plasticity can happen very fast. CITY The city is a layered system that work simultaneously at different speeds. Fashion changes rapidly, infrastructure roads and buildings evolve gradually, laws of society (governance) changes very slow. |
ADJUST
BRAIN The brain adjust to whatever body he finds. CITY The city adapts and adjust any type of building or spaxce. Its function of a building does not define a city. REWARD
BRAIN Reward is a powerful way to rewire the brain. CITY We need a good building to activate the neighborhood and the city. For example, the Guggenheim in Bilbao activated the whole city. DEATH
BRAIN Neurons die and that is good thing. Is like Michelangelo carves a block of marble and creates a masterpiece. CITY In the city we have to carve and destroy some building. To create a masterpiece, we need to destroy some buildings. FLEXIBILITY
BRAIN Flexibility happens more in a young time. CITY Flexibility happens when the city is young and not so formed. But flexibility happens at every age. NETWORK
BRAIN Neural networks physically degenerate but their performance not. You have to keep your brain active, possibly form new connections. CITY Memory of the city is not located in one spot but the image of the city is all over the city. |
FLEXIBLE / OPPORTUNITIES
BRAIN The brain is flexible in the animal kingdom. For example, the best archery person has no arms. He kid with three arms, or the dog that moves with two legs only. Armless archers with legs and bipedal dogs. Demonstrates that brains are not predefined for particular bodies. It adapts. This is not adapting the brain just to the body you are born with but with changes and new opportunities. Adaptability of the brain to steer new possibilities. CITY The city should be as flexible as the brain. Flexible City. The city is not predefined to be a certain way. Diversity of cities configurations. For example, the city is different if you go in a wheelchair. Is not perfect but it is diverse functionality. It adapts. We have to look towards opportunities the city offers and exploit them. PREDICT
BRAIN The brain guesses the world what is going to happen in the next moment. The results for a longer time change in the brain are more difficult to predict. How we understand these more lasting effects. If it is a more predictable, it ignores them. The pattern stream is predictable the brain saves energy. CITY The city guesses what happens in the next moment but is more difficult for the long term. More lasting effects in the city is difficult to predict. RADICAL
BRAIN Sometimes there are radical changes in the brain. When receive a brain injury (accident) your mind changes completely. CITY Las rondas de Barcelona change the configuration of the city. MEMORIES/CONNECTIONS
BRAIN Network is not binary the connection. Is a gradient where connections are strong or weak. Because I lost my capacity of walking and talking, these connections happen not by frequency but complexity. CITY In the city connections are not binary but it gradient. We have more connections with some places. They are connected in the city depending on the complexity the action has as well as the frequency.. |
