DECODING URBAN MOBILITY
ABSTRACT; Decoding Urban Mobility: This project evaluates the impact of AI-driven traffic management versus conventional fixed-timing methods on urban congestion. It analyzes real-time and historical data—including traffic patterns, weather, demographics, and incident reports—from cities like London, Barcelona, and Los Angeles and compares machine learning models (e.g., LSTM, GRU, XGBoost) with traditional techniques. The study identifies … Read more
EcoNodes
Introduction Urban areas are increasingly becoming impermeable, exacerbating environmental challenges such as elevated temperatures, flooding, and pollution. EcoNodes is designed to empower policymakers with a sophisticated tool for dynamically assessing and adapting urban environments towards increased sustainability by pinpointing and prioritizing areas for green interventions. Impervious Surfaces and Urban Heat Islands Cities today face the … Read more

TERRANOVA: Organic Waste to Ecological Wealth
Located in the quiet community of Sant Adria De Besos lies the Besos Power Station. This waste to energy power plant is responsible for providing power to over 10 municipalities of Spain and takes care of nearly half of the waste that comes into Barcelona. While this factory proves to be highly effective, several negative … Read more
TerraFlux: The Cloud that Rains
Narrative TerraFlux[the cloud that rains]: humanity’s rehearsal for the future, a transhuman data driven system TerraFlux as a Singularity ThresholdThe Technological Singularity marks the moment when artificial intelligence surpasses human cognition, triggering a cascade of rapid, uncontrollable innovation. At this threshold, AI will evolve autonomously, improving itself at an accelerating pace. This transformative leap will … Read more
EntoNest
This project seeks to transform La Fira, an industrial zone in Barcelonès, into a sustainable insect farming hub. By embedding insect farming within the existing infrastructure, it will leverage local resources to efficiently produce high-protein insect products. Traditional agriculture faces growing pressures including water scarcity and limited space, especially in urban areas like Barcelona. Insect farming … Read more
SYMBIOTIC SPACES
Climate change has become one of the primary drivers of forced displacement around the world, giving rise to the phenomenon known as climate migration. Here are some examples of statistics in the last year, forcing people to move to other cities and countries. Some of the most relevant examples of this displacement, have been occurred … Read more
