. ****************************************************************** Weimar 10-12 November - Media city Conference / Bauhaus-University Weimar http://www.mediacityproject.com/e_conference.html
The conference attempts to research different approaches to handle the primary question of how “media” and “urban space” might be constructed as terms which will allow further empirical research strategies. The MEDIACITY conference wants to enable the research about occurring processes of media use in urban contexts in the widest sense. It aims to research solutions for urban development in a knowledge based society. MEDIACITY intends to achieve a transfer of experiences and theoretical knowledge about opportunities to implement information and media technologies in an urban environment. The conference focuses on the issue of a knowledge based economy and society for cities, the use for new media in the practice of urban planning, land use and architecture and the necessary political and social framework to ensure the socially balanced embedding of these technologies. ****************************************************************** Augsburg 16.
