huang, xingyue. 2022. MUNDANE AMBIGUITY: MAKING PUBLIC REALM WITH BALLAST WATER INFRASTRUCTURE. Master's thesis, Harvard Graduate School of Design.

Abstract

This thesis proposes landscape infrastructure as the agency for managing ballast water exchange, conducting mass recycling of waste materials, and creating new public realms. It asks if infrastructure could inform spatial qualities valuable for imagining new public realms – public realms that accommodate uncertainties and keep the ambiance of ordinary lives in an unassuming, modest yet powerful manner.
