The laboratory is the place
where things that are
uncommon and unproven are
tested: a learning process by definition.
- Paolo Soleri, 2002
Infrastructure transitions require
new and effective forms of
urban knowledge. - Mike Hodson and Simon Marvin, 2009
BUT - who is involved and why?- how are experiments staged? - how is learning and scaling supposed to occur?
‘Implementation Platforms’
• ‘learning to learn’ - soft versus hard learning
• ethos of experimentation
• interaction between technological and social aspects
• Infrastructure waiting for a user
• Test-bed
• Data on a memory stick
research infrastructure and transition
‘modestly nudging reality’
• Testing versus experimenting?
‘many of the technologies are not our own technologies anyway, they’re not things we want to test.... so really we are testing to see what the problems of the real world are rather than testing particular systems’
• learning and transition
• politics of different research assemblages
