I’m coming to Toronto in early June on my way to Personal Democracy Forum in New York; while I’m there, I’ll be speaking at the SubtleTechnologies event in Innis Town Hall at 6:30PM on June 4. I’m sitting on a panel called “How can we build a city that thinks like the web?” with Mark Surman (Mozilla) and Sara Diamond (OCAD), chaired by the CBC’s Dan Misener. The event is free, but pre-reg is required.
Can you remake a city in the image of the web? Can the open, decentralized, real-time spirit of the online world be applied to the places we live to make them more creative and innovative? What are the opportunities and challenges of the so-called “networked city?”
How can we build a city that
thinks like the web?
