The Physical and the Digital City is a unique collection of projects in which researchers and designers show how the theories of technology that underpin digital urban assemblages are applied in practical and spatial terms. The authors are experts in their respective fields who pursue cutting-edge solutions for city-making and consider the theoretical premise critically.

Designed to be a self-contained and interdisciplinary reference text to introduce students, designers, and scholars to the idea of urban application and its relation to the physical and the digital. Accessible to both urban planners and cultural theorists and  it illuminates the role of digital technologies within the city, along with its possible implications for both people and communities.
