Urban interventions of microurbanism allow residents a creation of an improved space in metropolis: the panel in Depot will present a variety of practices of urban acupunctures from Ljubljana, Mexico City to Vienna. In Mexico City, which is built on a lake, but is facing today a massive problem of water distribution, Down by the water is carried out. In Vienna Soho in Ottakring is dealing with the re-acquisition of public space, just as Zalograd in Ljubljana.
