This open access book presents a selection of the best
contributions to the Digital Cities 9 Workshop held in Limerick in
2015, combining a number of the latest academic insights into new
collaborative modes of city making that are firmly rooted in
empirical findings about the actual practices of citizens,
designers and policy makers. It explores the affordances of new
media technologies for empowering citizens in the process of city
making, relating examples of bottom-up or participatory practices
to reflections about the changing roles of professional
practitioners in the processes, as well as issues of governance and
institutional policymaking.
This open access book is about public open spaces, about people,
and about the relationship between them and the role of technology
in this relationship. It is about different approaches, methods,
empirical studies, and concerns about a phenomenon that is
increasingly being in the centre of sciences and strategies - the
penetration of digital technologies in the urban space. As the main
outcome of the CyberParks Project, this book aims at fostering the
understanding about the current and future interactions of the
nexus people, public spaces and technology. It addresses a wide
range of challenges and multidisciplinary perspectives on emerging
phenomena related to the penetration of technology in people's
lifestyles - affecting therefore the whole society, and with this,
the production and use of public spaces. Cyberparks coined the term
cyberpark to describe the mediated public space, that emerging type
of urban spaces where nature and cybertechnologies blend together
to generate hybrid experiences and enhance quality of life.
