Deciphering Bodies: In Conversation with Blanca Pujals And Ellie Cosgrave

Architect Fani Kostourou, associate at Theatrum Mundi, is joined by architect Blanca Pujals and engineer and dancer Ellie Cosgrave to discuss bodies and voices at the centre of city making.

Who is visible or audible in public space, and how can interdisciplinary be incorporated into what are fundamentally data driven disciplines like engineering, and an architecture based on standardised measures of the body?

Blanca is an architect, spatial researcher and critical writer. Her cross-disciplinary practice engages with questions of geographies of power, the philosophy of science and transnational politics. Ellie Cosgrave is a civil engineer, lecturer at UCL, as well as a trained dancer who has contributed in the development of Theatrum Mundi’s ongoing project Choreographing the City.
