San Francisco and Medellín, Colombia, are this year’s winners.</p> <p>Streetfilms worked with ITDP to document these two cities and we'll be releasing videos on each this spring. But since I just returned from Medellín, I can't help but share a few highlights.</p> <p>I met Carlos Moreno from despacio.org at the airport. Carlos translated and helped coordinate the logistics of this video shoot. We started with a 45-minute cab ride down the mountain to the valley where Medellín is situated. The view as we descended was absolutely spectacular and set the tone for our week's work.<img alt="spacer" title="IMG_2263" src="/img/spacer.gif"> </p> <p>Once in Medellín, we met Jorge Iván Ballesteros and Jesús Acero. These two gentlemen were going to show us why their city was nominated for ITDP's prestigious award. And we were to dedicate each day to a different theme, starting with "public space" on the first day.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="spacer" title="IMG_2264" src="/img/spacer.gif"> </p> <p>Throughout the day we must have visited half a dozen public spaces where young people were playing in fountains and giant sand boxes while their folks relaxed in the nearby shade. In Medellín there are permanent public space projects popping up seemingly everywhere. Then there are the temporary public space projects like the annual festival of lights, better known as Los Alumbrados.</p> <p>Here is Carlos Moreno talking about Los Alumbrados:<br /> </p> <p> (more...)</p> </div> </div> <div> <h3 id="streetfilms-news-header">Streetfilms News: Do you like our new helmets? </h3> <div> <span> by <span>Robin Urban Smith</span> on <span><abbr title="2012-01-17T14:47:08-0400">January 17, 2012</abbr> </span> </span> </div> <div> <p> </p> <p><img alt="spacer" title="photo" src="/img/spacer.gif"> </p> <p>Danielle Baskin from Belle Helmets painted these beautiful and whimsical custom helmets for the Streetfilms crew!</p> </div> </div> <div> <h3 id="streetfilms-news-header">Streetfilms News: Streetfilms Q&A: Carla Saulter </h3> <div> <span> by <span>Clarence Eckerson, Jr.</span> on <span><abbr title="2012-01-02T18:50:18-0400">January 2, 2012</abbr> </span> </span> </div> <div> <p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="spacer" style="margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px; border-px; border-color: black; border-style: solid;" title="CarlaS" src="/img/spacer.gif"> </p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>SF</strong>:  Tell us about your Bus Chick column.</p> <p><strong>CS</strong>: <em>I’ve been writing about what I call “transit culture” for almost six years. There are lots of people writing—probably a lot better than I could—about transit policy and urban planning. I sometimes touch on those subjects, but I’m much more interested in what’s happening on the ground: who's riding, why, and how. My blog is more about the “public” than it is about transportation.</em></p> <p><strong>SF</strong>: We profiled your family in a 2009 Streetfilm and every time we've screened it, it really reverberated with folks. Have you gotten the same feedback?</p> <p><strong>CS</strong>:<em> I've received a fair amount of attention from the film, not so much because my blog or what I said on camera, but because of my daughter - believe it or not, for reasons other than her extreme cuteness. A lot of people are truly shocked by the fact that I'm raising a child (these days, two) without a car. In some ways, this is understandabale, since most Americans believe that cars are essential for good, middle-class parenting. On the other hand, I ride the bus with parents and children every day. Among my fellow passengers, "busing with babies" is decidedly unremarkable.</em></p> <p><strong>SF</strong>: If you could make everyone in Seattle watch one Streetfilm, what would you choose?</p> <p><strong>CS</strong>: I think the entire Moving Beyond the Autombobile series should be required viewing for everyone on Earth. There are many more entertaining and inspirational Streetfilms, but the MBA series is a clear, comprehensive introduction to a lot of the concepts that the livable streets movement is based on.</p> <p>If I had to pick one film for Seattlelites, it would be the one about Bogota's BRT system. In the first place, it shows that a city without huge capital resources can build a usable, accessible and efficient transit system. It also shows that it doesn't take decades of debate to get stuff done. (Seattle types, you feel me?) Plus, the bus command center is cool."</p> <p></p> </div> </div> See All News... </div> </div> </div></div> <div style="position:absolute; z-index:98; top:0px; width:100%; padding-top:2px; background-color:#fafafa; border-bottom: 1px solid #bbb; -webkit-box-shadow: 0 4px 4px -2px #ccc; -moz-box-shadow: 0 4px 4px -2px #ccc; box-shadow: 0 4px 4px -2px #ccc;" class="container" id="h9xt2"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-3"> <form name="src" id="src" action="/index.php" method="post"> <div id="ricerca" class="ricerca"> <table style="margin: 9px 0 9px 0;"> <tr> <td> <a href="https://search.gipoco.com" title="free experimental uncensored search engine - home page"> <img src="/img/logo_mini.png" alt="free experimental uncensored search engine" class="logo"> </a> </td><td> <input type="button" id="srcbtn" value="🔍" alias-label="open search form" style="margin:5px 5px 5px 16px; color:#000;" onclick="document.getElementById('srcform').style.display='block';document.getElementById('srcbtn').style.display='none'"> </td><td> <div style="margin:4px 4px 4px 4px"> <a href="https://stats.gipoco.com" title="view page-rank and visitors counter and free website stats"> <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ document.write('<img src="https://stats.gipoco.com/stat.php?c00=188&c01=188&c02=188&c30=170&c20=255&c21=0&l=&m=&refr=&x='+screen.width+'&y='+screen.height+'" alt="visitors counter and page-rank checker and web-site statistics" style="margin-left:9px; width:70px; height:26px; border: 1px solid #fff" />'); /* ]]> */ </script> </a> </div> </td> </tr> </table> <table style="margin: 9px 0 9px 0; display:none" id="srcform"> <tr> <td> SEARCH: </td> <td> <input type="text" name="txt" aria-label="type something to search" size="11" style="margin-left:5px; color:#000;"> <input type="submit" value="🔍" alias-label="press to search" style="margin-left:5px; color:#000;"> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </form> </div> <div class="col-md-3"> <div style="margin-top:3px; font-size:16px; padding-bottom:15px;"> Related searches: <br/><a href="https://search.gipoco.com/search/transit/" title="transit" style="margin:4px;"><b> transit </b></a> <a href="https://search.gipoco.com/search/public/" title="public" style="margin:4px;"><b> public </b></a> <a href="https://search.gipoco.com/search/medell/" title="medell" style="margin:4px;"><b> medell </b></a> <a href="https://search.gipoco.com/search/twitter/" title="twitter" style="margin:4px;"><b> twitter </b></a> <a href="https://search.gipoco.com/search/cycling/" title="cycling" style="margin:4px;"><b> cycling </b></a> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-5"> <div class="hidden-xs" style="margin-top:10px; font-size:13px;"> <strong>gipoco.com</strong> is neither affiliated with the authors of this page or responsible <br> for its contents.
