New Urban Spaces film shorts

I saw a write up about a new series from Babelgum called 'New Urbanism', a series of film shorts exploring the news ways urban spaces are being utilized. As has been heavily reported, for the first time in recorded history, more than 50% of Earth's population lives in urban areas. This growing population in cities will inevitably transform the way cities allocate and use space.

Here's the video clip to give to give you some ideas about what people are doing to reclaim unused or abandoned space.



Check out Babelgum for the short films themselves, should be interesting and good place to look to see what is happening as the populations of cities swell.
