CALL – LONDON
Today, the city is a technological infused entity premised on a plethora of digital phenomena including the Internet of Things, ubiquitous computing, computer-led infrastructure, big data and AI. It is also a place designed, envisaged and increasingly built through data-based digital architecture, planning and construction. The result is a series of complex interactions of people, place and data and the establishment of the ‘digital city’, ‘smart buildings’ and ‘intelligent’ urbanism. While often celebrated, there are concerns. GIS, Google Maps and Facebook all offer interconnected information on urban life. They are also conduits for the collation of personal data and its misuse. 3D printed buildings threaten job losses in the construction industry while the idea of parametric urbanism is anathema to many. This conference seeks to explore these and related issues from a variety of discipline perspectives.

CALL – NEW YORK
The premise of this conference is that the city is a site of interconnected problems and solutions operative across disciplines, both today, and in the future. While issues of architectural design, urbanization, resilience, housing and healthy cities etc. all respond to their own unique and independent demands, they are also interrelated. As a result, innovations in one area are useful in another. This conference suggests that: i) nowhere is this interrelated dynamic more evident than in the issue of climate change and ii) that the host city, New York, offers a perfect example of the interconnected urban phenomena. On that basis, it seeks to instigate interdisciplinary debate on initiatives in specific fields with the objective of offering a fuller and broader understanding of our work and its potential impact inside and outside our own disciplinary boundaries.
