Social Cities of Tomorrow.
Review by Lawrence Bird
On Feb. 17th Amsterdam hosted Social Cities of Tomorrow, a conference on
new media and urbanism. Adapting its title from Ebenezer Howard’s Garden
Cities of Tomorrow, but taking equal inspiration from the work of
Archigram, the conference presented a snapshot of the direction cities
are moving today: as conventional means of planning and designing are
renegotiated through our engagement with new media technologies.
