Urbanscreens-l -- URBAN SCREENS Mailing List
About Urbanscreens-l	English (USA)
URBAN SCREENS are various kinds of dynamic digital displays and interfaces in urban space such as LED signs, plasma screens, projection boards, information terminals but also intelligent architectural surfaces being used in consideration of a well balanced, sustainable urban society. Screens that support the idea of public space as space for creation and exchange of culture, strengthening the local economy and the formation of a 'public sphere'. Its digital nature makes these screening platforms an experimental visualisation zone on the threshold of virtual and urban public space. (Mirjam Struppek) URBAN SCREENS 2005 was the first international conference of its kind. Presentations covered a broad spectrum of topics and issues, ranging from critical theory to project experiences by researchers and practitioners in the field of art, architecture, urban studies and digital culture. URBAN SCREENS 2007 (Manchester, October 2007) elaborated on this discussion with a programme focusing on content for urban screens. The URBAN SCREENS mailing list is open to anyone interested in broadening the use of large digital displays in public spaces.
