Summary:
"TransUrbanism" describes how our cities enter a new 'atmospheric phase.' The city and its borders blur ; it is no longer a material object of which one can easily situate. The city's substance is hardly material/architectural anymore. Public squares, market places, the layout of streets seem irrelevant to how the city is experienced. "TransUrbanism" aims at a conscious practice : how can writers, artists and urban developers define new methods for inventing our future cities? "TransUrbanism" contains interviews, essays and art projects by : Arjun Appadurai, Rem Koolhaas, Knowbotic Research, Scott Lash, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Brett Steele, Edward Soja, Lars Spuybroek, Roemer van Toorn and Mark Wigley.
