week van de eenzaamheid
During these days in October, they call upon the people to get together against loneliness by organizing events where people can come together. they also discuss the issues. De menselijke maat is a panel where every year they tackle the subject but every time form a different angle.
This year the angle they went about was from an environmental perspective. the question was, how does loneliness relate to architecture and public places and how the design can enhance the feeling. We got a presentation by Iris Bakker, a researcher that studies how physical space can influence the human. She gave a lot of insight related to how little details can make move people in the way they feel with clever examples. She also gave insights on behaviors and what motivates people to come together.
after the presentation, a panel was introduced to further discuss the issues. the panel was made out of city planners, architects, developers and researchers. they talked about interesting findings they do during their work and how they deal with the issue of bringing people together.
It was a fruitful event for me because I did get new insights into how I can look at the subject I want to work on during my graduation. The panel talks a lot about how they can bring people together but social loneliness and emotional loneliness are not the same. So I couldn't really use any of their information.
Iris Bakker did have a lot of information that I could use. although the presentation was related to architecture and the living environments, she did show a lot of need that humans need to not feel lonely and to get connected with others. Like people miss the human connection and a dutch quote written in rotterdam (somewhere) "de omgeving van de mens is zijn medemens.". She also talked about homo ludens. this inspired me to look more in to the connection with the brain.

what is identaty
In philosophy, identity, from Latin: identitas ("sameness"), is the relation each thing bears only to itself.[1][2] The notion of identity gives rise to many philosophical problems, including the identity of indiscernibles (if x and y share all their properties, are they one and the same thing?), and questions about change and personal identity over time (what has to be the case for a person x at one time and a person y at a later time to be one and the same person?).
It is important to distinguish the philosophical concept of identity from the more well-known notion of identity in use in psychology and the social sciences. The philosophical concept concerns a relation, specifically, a relation that x and y stand in if, and only if they are one and the same thing, or identical to each other (i.e. if, and only if x = y). The sociological notion of identity, by contrast, has to do with a person's self-conception, social presentation, and more generally, the aspects of a person that make them unique, or qualitatively different from others (e.g. cultural identity, gender identity, national identity, online identity and processes of identity formation).
