Abstract

Leonardo was founded in 1968 with the goal of becoming an international channel of communication for artists who use science and developing technologies in their work. Today, Leonardo is the leading international journal for readers interested in the application of contemporary science and technology to the arts and music. The benefits of a Leonardo subscription are manifold. A subscription to Leonardo includes Leonardo Music Journal, ISSN 0961-1215 (including compact disc), featuring the latest in music, multimedia art, sound science and technology. In addition Leonardo subscribers become members of Leonardo/ISAST (the International Society for the Arts, Sciences and Technology) and receive reduced rates on all Society publications. Subscribers to Leonardo are also granted access to Leonardo Electronic Almanac.

Abstract

"Geomedia offers critical analysis of the new possibilities and power relations emerging in the public space of contemporary cities. As ubiquitous digital networks enable embedded and mobile devices to integrate place-specific data with real-time feedback circuits, everyday experience of public space has become subject to new demands. Looking beyond debates framed by the dominance of surveillance and spectacle, McQuire asks: how might the kind of collaborative practices that have flourished in art and online cultures be translated into urban space? In the urban crisis of the 1960s, Henri Lefebvre argued that the capacity for a city’ s inhabitants to actively appropriate the time and space of their surroundings was a critical dimension of modern democracy. What does it mean to speak of ‘ the right to the city’ in the context of the networked city? Addressing this question through a series of case studies, this cutting-edge text highlights the tensions between citizen and consumer, communication and surveillance, participation and control, which define contemporary struggles over public space"-- Geomedia offers critical analysis of the new possibilities and power relations emerging in the public space of contemporary cities.

Abstract

"The work of Metahaven consists of filmmaking, writing, graphic design, and installations, and is united by interests in poetry, storytelling, digital superstructures, and propaganda. Central to their practice is the narration of technological and political conditions through aesthetically immersive plots. Told through a multitude of languages and genres, their work imagines alternate realities and potential futures, and builds on a lineage of filmmakers and artists who use investigative and speculative methods to pinpoint the urgencies of their time"--Page 4 of cover.
