Abstract:
This presentation explores the impact of globalisation on emerging urbanities, and the relationship between the mediated and the physical city, and shows selected samples from the work carried out over the past years within A + URL, the Architecture + Urban Research Laboratory, and other collaborative projects, i.e. prototypes, installations, performances, etc. The projects intend to explore to what extent we can construct new environments, cities of intensity rather then cities of density.
