Technological mediations in the city: from a notion of augmented urban space to the construction of a sense of connectedness by the collective experience

Journal Title: ESSACHESS - Journal for Communication Studies - Year 2010, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

This paper presents a contribution to the research on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for the construction and share of urban experience. We illustrate our considerations with examples that combine dynamics of urban and virtual spaces according to a notion of augmented urban space. In this dynamics ICT function as mediators of the perception of space and social relations.
