Kreyon City

Kreyon City is a unique experience whose challenge is that of collectively conceive sustainable solutions for the city. No-one is able to conceive the whole city alone. On the contrary, the contribution of each and everyone is highly important. Participants are challenged in bootstrapping a whole city made of houses, industries, schools, services, and infrastructures, without an underlying blueprint. Everyone has the opportunity to shape his/her own ideas, by creating new parts of the city of restructuring and improving elements built by others. The emerging city is monitored through cameras that, like observation satellites, allow to visualize in real-time important features of the city, like the number of inhabitants, employment rate, quality of life, etc.

Bernardo Monechi, Enrico Ubaldi, Vittorio Loreto

Bernardo Monechi is an Assistant Researcher at Sony CSL Paris. In his research, he exploits the typical tools of Complex Systems Physics trying to find for new approaches to the study of human creativity, considering creativity as the process of exploring spaces of possibilities looking for valuable novel elements. He is also interested in the modelization of techno-social systems (Urban Environments, Railway Systems, etc.), trying to involve citizens in the research process by means of engaging gamified social experiments.

Enrico Ubaldi is an Assistant Researcher at Sony CSL Paris. His research is to unveil and describe these underlying processes by using Complex
Systems techniques in combination with machine learning tools. He is also engaged in the development of digital platforms for sustainability to create playful environments aimed at assessing the present situation and allow citizens to participate in the decision process to conceive and simulate future scenarios.

Vittorio Loreto is the Director of Sony CSL Paris and head of the Creativity and Artificial Intelligence Team in the same lab. His research activity is focused on complexity science and its interdisciplinary applications. Along the past years, he has been active in several fields from granular media, to complexity and information theory, from social dynamics to sustainabilty. His work also focus on understanding and modeling how the “new” enters our lives in its multiform instantiations: personal novelties or global innovation, blending, in a unitary interdisciplinary effort, three main activities: web-based experiments, data science, and theoretical modeling.
