"The urban is defined as the place where people walk around, find themselves standing before and inside piles of objects, experience the intertwining of the threads of their activities until they become unrecognizable, entangle situations in such a way that they engender unexpected situations."
(Henri Lefèbvre: La révolution urbaine, P. 39)
The "Network Right To The City Hamburg" invites to collective confusions, encounters and diversions. At different places spread over the city, on june, 2nd to 5th 2011 a lot of planned and unplanned will take place.
