Adam Greenfield Wellington Webstock Walkshop

The video was captured during Adam Greenfield's Systems/Layers: Understanding urban space in an era of networked informatics - workshop in Wellington yesterday as part of the Webstock conference.

Not so much a hands-on as a feet-on workshop, you will be taken on an hour-long walk to examine the city through the lens of digital interventions and infrastructures.

Visions of networked urbanism tend to live in what Paul Dourish and Genevieve Bell call a "proximate future," that just-over-the-horizon window of time that never actually seems to arrive. But how do networked services inform our choices and experiences in the real city that we actually inhabit at this moment? We're going to take a walk around a Wellington site and look for the appearances, manifestations and points of application where the affordances and constraints of networked informatics are already relevant to urban life.
