Writeup of the talks that AG, NN and I gave in Madrid, for the BBVA “Smart Cities” Forum. I didn’t much care for how my talk came together — I was exhausted, jetlagged, and on the last of the flu — but I was excited at the correspondences between our presentations.
As surely as it feels like a movement has a name (“Smart Cities”) it also feels like the critique of said movement is collectively more articulate and persuasive. Now the key is to find language to describe what it should be, to go beyond popping the balloon and figuring out what the party really needs.
