In this Urban Incubator workshop, students from the faculty of architecture from Belgrade, they learn concretely new methods of urban development.

When you think about Vikings, the first picture that might come to mind is one of fierce warriors wearing horned hats. But did you know that the storied Scandinavians were also avid builders of  green-roofed  homes? While the three  sod-topped longhouses  that sit on the remains of a 1,000-year-old Norse colony at  L'Anse aux Meadows  are just reconstructions, they were built to exemplify the  sustainable architecture  that the Vikings knew about centuries before LEED. Located on the northernmost tip of Newfoundland in Canada, the grass-topped homes almost seem to disappear into the grassy landscape. L’Anse aux Meadows is the only known site of a Norse village in   Canada , and in North America outside of Greenland. When it was a bustling town, the settlement had three timber and   sod longhouses   as well as five smaller buildings that were built by the Vikings, all built five centuries before Christopher Columbus set foot on this continent. While those structures are long gone,

Andy Goldsworthy 1987.

"Character assassination has always been a tool used by those who cannot successfully defend their message. Although they think such slander will destroy my career, they don’t understand that I consciously gave up a ‘career’ in 1982 for a life of service. The spirit of service inspired by the truth, conscience and compassion cannot be stopped by threats or media attacks. For me, science has always  been about service, not servitude. My life of science is about creativity and seeing connections, not about mechanistic thought and manipulated facts." —Vandana Shiva
