Instant Cities

Производитель: "Artifice"

`Instant Cities` analyses the current stratospheric rise of the city, looking at global megacities from the first to the third world, such as Frank Lloyd Wright`s Broadacre City, Milton Keynes in the UK, Lakewood, CA, Brasilia and its satellite towns, Bangalore, India`s Silicon Valley, and Pudong, Shanghai. In doing so, `Instant Cities` investigates how humanity adapts socially and culturally within a dense population. With building space throughout the world at a premium and environmentally-sound development of tremendous importance to the future of the planet, `Instant Cities` looks ahead, to creative, forward-thinking and possibly fanciful notions of the city, such as biospheres, space stations and virtual realities.
