In an ever faster moving world cities have become somehow fascinating for us. They do not only respresent mankind's belief in technology but do also provide us with an endless variety of images and sounds.
urbanDynamics is an international video project designed to cover global urban dynamics. Its aim is to make a collage of urban environments around the world by assembling video footage from citizens. It's an experiment that totally depends on the participants, who rediscover their cities with a simple miniDV camcorder.
Besides, the project can promote a more positive point of view towards globalisation by recognizing the possibility of making such a project with unknown people simply on the basis of confidence and the spirit of film making.
Over the period of a year 26 people from 17 different countries joined the project and contributed video footage or music to the project. It has shown me that our world has really developed to a global village. Regarding the fact that those 26 people have never met but produced a film together shows the new opportunities of a globalised world for the "normal" people.

Nice project
I didn't have the same luck as you. For the translation of the intertitles of a movie i found only 3 collaborators. The translation to 22 languages i did it through the online translators. Finally 26 languages, same as the number of people for this. Very nice project and video. Perhaps you should keep it open to add more videos in the future... Regards.

Subject:
Nice background movie
Ennemoser and his colleagues made a very worthwhile attempt to make features of modern city life visible. It is nearly impossible to understand that they all participated without knowing each other in person..
The film offers nice views about different cities, although the story the film wants to tell is a bit flat. In my opinion, the film is a bit too long for the story it has too tell " Cities are living organisms that are the living constructs of the future". If the film would be strucured around some themes and showing how this is dealt with in various circumstances (e.g. living, traffic, leisure) I think the story would have been stronger...
but still worthwhile!

Cities in Motion
Interesting project and very well put together. I wasn't overly excited by the narration which I thought was a bit negative about cities but I greatly enjoyed the fast-forwarded images of cities in motion, set to music. Extra keywords: transit, transport, trains, highways, cars, skyscrapers, pedestrians.
