Forum Connective Spaces (Baumeister Topos Cities Initiative)

Nowadays people are well interconnected via smartphone and social media. The connection and connectivity of cities is an essential key to the success of urban spaces. Districts and cities will not only have to connect with each other but also with energy, knowledge and food suppliers. It is the only way for a city to satisfy the individual needs of its inhabitants. High-tech, but also analog solutions are conceivable. We look into the matter: How does a city with a maximum participation work? We discuss technical solutions and ideas, planning approaches, challenges, and visions.
