WEEK TEN SELECTED READING: THE ASPATIAL CITY



Zelfde, J. V., 2012. "The aspatial city." The continuous partial everywhere.

Personal experiential premise of another city being added to the city we live and work in by the enthusiastic use of continuous media

Viral networks of social services-in-space as Foursquare, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Sonar  all swarming in and out of my iPhone at the speed of friendship, family and curiosity

The continuous partial everywhere is the aspatial experience of simultaneity in immediate media

“The city for me is no longer only a city in space, but now also a city in time. An aspatial city, without distances, in a kind of aspace.”

Spatial strategies of artists, designers and corporations and the implications for how we understand, build and live in cities
