Description
How are new digital media changing how we build and maintain the social connections that make urban environments vibrant? This panel brings together experts from humanities, social science, and technology to focus on questions of how computer networks and social networks are reshaping, remapping, and remaking cities. Technology and infrastructure have always helped to define urban environments and rapidly changing information and communication technologies are no exception. From digital maps to online social networks, new technologies are changing what we know about the cities we are in, how we use them, and how we connect to one another.
