Urban Lenses Lab
A session at PICNIC'10
How do you experience the city surrounding you? As a series of buildings and streets, or a collection of data and connected objects? During the Urban Lenses Panel, a collection of experts will explore the city as they see it – combining services, sensors, objects and data.
After a brief introduction, each of the panels will give a 10-minute talk about the city of Amsterdam, exploring its past and future, as seen through their own particular lens. They will then join together to discuss how these lenses overlap and what it means for our city.
This session is moderated by Adam Greenfield, and will feature experts in the following areas:
Anab Jain, Superflux, on services
Usman Haque, Pachube, on sensors
Matt Cottam, Tellart, on objects
Tom Coates, on data
