The Sports Arena | Malmberget
The second week of the City Move Interdesign-workshop mainly consisted of fine-tuning and structuring the concepts around which each group were working. After a week in which some groups tried to find a common ground (which not seldom led to meta-discursive situations in which the prime question was “how to talk about what we want to talk about”), there were short presentations, visits from the local community, interviews for local newspapers and productive pop-up performance in front of the camera.

The Pit | Malmberget
There is a hole in the city of Malmberget. Since a couple of decades the underground mining activity created an expanding crater in the heart of this small city. Due to its growth, some drastic measures have been taken in the past; the population that once lived around the pit had to be moved, but not only people moved, but also their houses. Snail-wise (both in speed of relocation, decision making as in the form houses being moved by trucks) this process has hollowed the sense of community in this once pioneering mining city.
