In the contemporary city; the physical infrastructure and sensorial experiences of two millennia are now inter-woven within an invisible digital matrix. This matrix alters human perceptions of the city; informs our behavior; and increasingly influences the urban designs we ultimately inhabit. Digital Futures and the City of Today cuts through these issues to analyse the work of architects; designers; media specialists; and a growing number of community activists; laying out a multi-faceted view of the complex integrated phenomenon of the contemporary city. Split into three sections; the book interrogates the concept of the ldquo;smartrdquo; city; examines innovative digital projects from around the world; documents experimental visions for the future; and describes projects that engage local communities in the design process.
