Main Gallery, The Building Centre, London

Digital Cities: London Future

A new exhibition in London co-curated by Sir Terry Farrell and The Building Centre, reveals how our cities are being transformed by the new digital technologies available to designers, architects and planners. Sir Terry Farrell, one of the world foremost architect / urban planners, will also open the exhibition on 20 November. The exhibition, Digital Cities: London Future will examine how digital technology helps us understand and improve the planning and experience of our city: looking at the impact of movement in cities; how communication and information technologies inform a personʼs experience of a place; how people interpret cities with the use of technology; how digital mapping influences the design and planning of cities and how new software is taking the design of buildings within their urban context, far beyond what can be achieved by human analysis. The exhibition and its associated lectures and conference will also be an opportunity for debating some of the ʻbig brotherʼ issues associated with all this potentially intrusive information gathering. The entirely multi-media exhibition will showcase a number of research and commercial projects that use technology to plan and design cities.
