Présentation de l'éditeur :
The third issue of Verb boogazine is about the changing
status of the city in the electronic era.
Connection looks at the
impact of electronic technology on new forms of urban reality, which
are generated by new phenomena that affect all aspects of space and the
experience of living in these new urbanisms.
Faced with an increased
blurring of the distinctions between the physical and the informational
dimension of cities, we explore the relation between virtual
connections - the effect of digital networks on the spaces and uses of
the city - and the persistent role of architecture in creating physical
connections between people, programs and uses.
Featured works and
texts: OMA, Atelier Bow-Wow, AUDC, PLOT. Featuring the Palast der
Republik story in Berlin, Chip City by Shinobu Hashimoto and Rients
Dijkstra, and Sim City, which contrasts the real city (the product of
virtual processes) with virtual cities (created by real people, via
computer-based simulations).
Albert Ferré, Michael Kubo, Ramon Prat, Tomoko Sakamoto, Anna Tetas
