Urban Computing and Its Discontents
I’ve long been fascinated by the intersection or what might be called “imagined spaces” and real spaces - the way that the places we live influence our imaginations and vice versa. (Long ago, in a world far far away, I did a dissertation on Urbanization and American Fiction from 1880-1930).
I was fascinated, therefore, to stumble on this book by Adam Greenfield and Mark Shepard: Urban Computing and Its Discontents. It’s the first pamphlet in a forthcoming series on Architecture and Situated Technologies, edited by Moar Khan, Trebor Scholz, and Mark Shepard.
It’s being made available through Lulu, and the download version is free (as in beer anyway; it is a standard copyright license). Paperback version is currently $15 in full color.
