ABSTRACT

This article calls for planning practitioners to engage in future-making practices that move from projection to reflexive engagement. We demonstrate how the audio walk, as a method for reflexive engagement, can assist planners in developing future-making practices that 1) strengthen planners’ ability to see places and issues through local perspectives, 2) help planners accommodate the messy present in future plans and 3) make planners recognize their own roles and responsibility as active generators of specific images of the future. We conclude that any representations of the future are performative; they bring the future into being and therefore enable or constrain certain (re)configurations of it.

摘要

本文呼吁规划从业者参与从投射到反思性参与的未来创造实践。我们展示了音频步行作为一种反思性参与的方法如何帮助规划者制定未来制定实践，即 1) 加强规划者通过当地视角看待地点和问题的能力，2) 帮助规划者适应未来规划中的混乱现状3) 使规划者认识到自己作为未来特定形象的积极生成者的角色和责任。我们得出的结论是，未来的任何表现都是表演性的；它们使未来成为现实，因此启用或限制了它的某些（重新）配置。
