Dave Troy: Social maps that reveal a city's intersections — and separations

Prevoditelj: Mislav Ante Omazić - EFZG Recezent: Ivan Stamenković

When we think about mapping cities,

Kada razmišljamo o mapiranju gradova,

we tend to think about roads and streets and buildings,

razmišljamo o cestama i ulicama i zgradama,

and the settlement narrative that led to their creation,

i narativu koji je vodio njihovoj kreaciji,

or you might think about the bold vision of an urban designer,

ili možete razmišljati o hrabroj viziji urbanog dizajnera,

but there's other ways to think about mapping cities

ali postoje i drugi načini kako razmišljati o mapiranju gradova

and how they got to be made.

i kako su oni nastali.

Today, I want to show you a new kind of map.

Danas vam želim pokazati novu vrstu mape.

This is not a geographic map.

To nije geografska mapa.

This is a map of the relationships between people in my hometown

Ovo je mapa veza ljudi u mom rodnom gradu

of Baltimore, Maryland,

Baltimoreu, Maryland,

and what you can see here is that each dot represents a person,

i ono što možete vidjeti ovdje jest da svaka točka predstavlja osobu,

each line represents a relationship between those people,

svaka linija predstavlja odnos između tih ljudi,

and each color represents a community within the network.

a svaka boja predstavlja zajednicu unutar mreže.

Now, I'm here on the green side, down on the far right where the geeks are,

Ja sam ovdje na zelenoj strani, dolje skroz desno sa štreberima,

and TEDx also is down on the far right. (Laughter)

i TEDx je isto dolje skroz desno. (Smijeh)

Now, on the other side of the network,

S druge strane mreže,

you tend to have primarily African-American and Latino folks

su uglavnom Afro-Amerikanci i Latino-Amerikanci

who are really concerned about somewhat different things than the geeks are,

koje zaista zanimaju donekle drugačije stvari od štrebera,

but just to give some sense,

ali čisto kako biste dobili osjećaj,

the green part of the network we call Smalltimore,

zeleni dio mreže ćemo nazvati Smalltimore,

for those of us that inhabit it,

zbog nas koji tamo stanujemo,

because it seems as though we're living in a very small town.

jer se čini kao da živimo u vrlo malom gradu.

We see the same people over and over again,

Stalno viđamo jedne te iste ljude,

but that's because we're not really exploring

ali to je jer zapravo ne istražujemo

the full depth and breadth of the city.

punu dubinu i širinu grada.

On the other end of the network,

S druge strane mreže,

you have folks who are interested in things like hip-hop music

imate ljude koje zanimaju stvari poput hip-hop glazbe

and they even identify with living in the DC/Maryland/Virginia area

i čak se identificiraju sa životom u okolini DC/Maryland/Virginia-e

over, say, the Baltimore city designation proper.

prije nego sa životom u okolini samog Baltimorea.

But in the middle, you see that there's

Ali u sredini vidite da postoji

something that connects the two communities together,

nešto što povezuje dvije zajednice,

and that's sports.

a to je sport.

We have the Baltimore Orioles, the Baltimore Ravens football team,

Imamo Baltimore Orioles, Baltimore Ravens ekipe američkog nogometa,

Michael Phelps, the Olympian.

olimpijca Michalea Phelpsa.

Under Armour, you may have heard of, is a Baltimore company,

'Under Armour', možda ste čuli to je kompanija iz Baltimora,

and that community of sports acts as the only bridge

i ta sportska zajednica funkcionira kao jedini most

between these two ends of the network.

između ova dva kraja mreže.

Let's take a look at San Francisco.

Pogledajmo San Francisco.

You see something a little bit different happening in San Francisco.

Vidite da se u San Franciscu događa nešto malo drugačije.

On the one hand, you do have the media, politics and news lobe

S jedne strane, imate dijelove s medijima, politikom i vijestima

that tends to exist in Baltimore and other cities,

koji postoje i u Baltimoreu i u drugim gradovima,

but you also have this very predominant group

ali imate i ovu grupu koja prevladava,

of geeks and techies that are sort of taking over the top half of the network,

grupu štrebera i ljubitelja tehnologije koji su na gornjoj polovici mreže,

and there's even a group that's so distinct and clear

i čak postoji grupa koja je toliko jasno odvojena

that we can identify it as Twitter employees,

i koju možemo identificirati kao zaposlenike Twittera,

next to the geeks, in between the gamers and the geeks,

pored štrebera, između gamera i štrebera,

at the opposite end of the hip-hop spectrum.

nasuprot hip-hop spektra.

So you can see, though,

Ipak možete vidjeti

that the tensions that we've heard about in San Francisco

da su istinite tenzije koje smo čuli za San Francisco

in terms of people being concerned about gentrification

što se tiče brige ljudi zbog gentrifikacije

and all the new tech companies that are bringing new wealth

i svih novih tehnoloških tvrtki koje donose novo bogatstvo

and settlement into the city are real,

i naseljavanje grada,

and you can actually see that documented here.

i to zapravo ovdje imate dokumentirano.

You can see the LGBT community

Možete vidjeti kako se LGBT zajednica

is not really getting along with the geek community that well,

baš i ne slaže najbolje sa zajednicom štrebera,

the arts community, the music community.

zajednicom umjetnika i glazbenika.

And so it leads to things like this.

To dovodi do ovakvih stvari.

["Evict Twitter"]

["Izbacite Twitter"]

Somebody sent me this photo a few weeks ago,

Neko mi je poslao ovu sliku prije nekoliko tjedana

and it shows what is happening on the ground in San Francisco,

i tu se vidi što se događa u San Franciscu,

and I think you can actually try to understand that

i mislim da možete zapravo razumijeti ovo

through looking at a map like this.

kroz gledanje mapa poput ove.

Let's take a look at Rio de Janeiro.

Pogledajmo Rio de Janeiro.

I spent the last few weeks gathering data about Rio,

Proteklih nekoliko tjedana skupljao sam podatke o Riju,

and one of the things that stood out to me about this city

i jedna od stvari koja se istaknula u vezi s ovim gradom

is that everything's really kind of mixed up.

jest da je sve nekako izmiješano.

It's a very heterogenous city in a way that Baltimore or San Francisco is not.

To je veoma heterogen grad na način na koji Baltimore i San Francisco nisu.

You still have the lobe of people involved

Još uvijek imate grupe ljudi koji su povezani

with government, newspapers, politics, columnists.

s vladom, novinama, politikom, kolumniste.

TEDxRio is down in the lower right, right next to bloggers and writers.

TEDxRio je u donjem lijevom kutu, neposerdno pored blogera i pisaca.

But then you also have this tremendous diversity of people

Ali onda imate i ovu nevjerojatnu raznovrsnost ljudi

that are interested in different kinds of music.

koje zanimaju različite vrste glazbe.

Ovdje su predstavljeni čak i sljedbenici Justina Bibera.

Even Justin Bieber fans are represented here.

Other boy bands, country singers,

Drugi boy bendovi, country pjevači,

gospel music, funk and rap and stand-up comedy,

gospel glazba, funk i rap i stand-up komedija,

and there's even a whole section around drugs and jokes.

i tu je čak i cijela sekcija vezana uz drogu i šale.

How cool is that?

Zar to nije super?

And then the Flamengo football team is also represented here.

Tu je predstavljen i nogometni tim Flamenga.

So you have that same kind of spread

Imate istu vrstu rasprostranjenosti

of sports and civics and the arts and music,

sporta i građanskih organizacija, umjetnosti i glazbe,

but it's represented in a very different way,

ali to je sve predstavljeno na prilično drugačiji način,

and I think that maybe fits with our understanding of Rio

i mislim kako se to možda uklapa s našim viđenjem Rija

as being a very multicultural, musically diverse city.

kao vrlo multikulturalnog, glazbeno raznovrsnog grada.

So we have all this data.

Imamo sve te podatke.

It's an incredibly rich set of data that we have about cities now,

To je nevjerojatno bogat skup podataka koji sada imamo o gradovima,

maybe even richer than any data set that we've ever had before.

možda čak i bogatiji od bilo kojeg skupa podataka kojeg smo imali do sada.

So what can we do with it?

Što možemo napraviti s time?

Well, I think the first thing that we can try to understand

Mislim da prvo možemo pokušati razumijeti

is that segregation is a social construct.

da je segregacija samo konstrukt društva.

It's something that we choose to do, and we could choose not to do it,

To je nešto što biramo raditi, i možemo izabrati da to ne radimo,

and if you kind of think about it,

i ako razmislite o tome,

what we're doing with this data is aiming a space telescope at a city

s ovim podacima ciljamo svemirskim teleskopom u grad

and looking at it as if was a giant high school cafeteria,

i gledamo na njega poput ogromne kantine u srednjoj školi,

and seeing how everybody arranged themselves in a seating chart.

i gledamo u kojem rasporedu svi sjede.

Well maybe it's time to shake up the seating chart a little bit.

Možda je vrijeme da malo promiješamo taj raspored sjedenja.

The other thing that we start to realize

Druga stvar koju smo počeli shvaćati

is that race is a really poor proxy for diversity.

jest kako je rasa zapravo loša zamjena za raznovrsnost.

We've got people represented from all different types of races

Imamo ljude iz svih mogućih rasa

across the entire map here --

preko cijele mape -

only looking at race

gledajući samo na rasu,

ne doprinosimo svom razvoju raznovrsnosti.

doesn't really contribute to our development of diversity.

So if we're trying to use diversity

Tako da, ako pokušavamo koristiti raznovrsnost

as a way to tackle some of our more intractable problems,

kao način borbe s nekim od naših tvrdoglavijih problema,

we need to start to think about diversity in a new way.

moramo početi razmišljati o raznovrsnosti na drugi način.

And lastly, we have the ability to create

I konačno, imamo sposobnost stvarati

interventions to start to reshape our cities in a new way,

intervencije kako bismo počeli s preoblikovanjem svojih gradova na nov način

and I believe that if we have that capability,

i vjerujem da ako imamo tu sposobnost,

we may even bear some responsibility to do so.

možda čak imamo i neku odgovornost da to napravimo.

So what is a city?

Dakle, što je grad?

I think some might say that it is

Mislim da bi neki rekli

a geographical area or a collection of streets and buildings,

da je to geografsko područje ili skup ulica i zgrada,

but I believe that a city is the sum of the relationships

ali ja verujem da je grad zbir veza ljudi

of the people that live there,

koji u njemu žive,

and I believe that if we can start to document those relationships in a real way

i vjerujem da ako možemo započeti dokumentirati te veze na stvaran način,

then maybe we have a real shot

onda možda imamo realnu priliku

at creating those kinds of cities that we'd like to have.

stvoriti onu vrstu grada kakav bismo željeli imati.

Thank you.

Hvala vam.

(Applause)
