ENHANCING PERFORMATIVE CIVIC ENGAGEMENT IN PUBLIC TRANSPORT

ENHANCING PERFORMATIVE CIVIC ENGAGEMENT IN PUBLIC TRANSPORT

Public transport is not only a public utility and a means of accessing other public places; it is also itself a mobile public space (Paget-Seekins & Tironi, 2016). Using public transport is an outdoor “necessary activity,” which is more or less compulsory, such as going to work or waiting for a bus, where people are in “passive contact” with each other –they only see and hear other people– and only minimum activity takes place (Ghel, J. 2011, p. 9-13). Through 2 workshops in Amsterdam and in Athens we created a toolkit with artistic games and props, which all passengers can use and interact with others in public transport. My aim is to empower citizens to transform the non-place (Augé, 1995) in means of public transportation into performance space/time and, subsequently, social space/time (Lefebvre, 1991) through a creative form of civic encounter.
