City life/ Claire Lowe lecture- Laura Paterson

I want to look at city life and the contrast of people, buildings, places and transport. I want to compare the dull reality of the city, such as homeless people to the rich buisness men. From public transport to posh cars and old worn out buildings to new architecture. I also want to look at students, music festivals and partying, all the things that make a city.

 

I went to the Claire Lowe lecture today which was all about the corridor Manchester which i found quite interesting in relation to what i am doing, she talked about what the corridor meant to different people and having a sense of place and belonging.
