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.
