Supernova Interview: Adam Greenfield of Nokia
At yesterday’s Supernova opening day event, Adam Greenfield discussed how humans have gotten used to using our urban spaces. One thing cities have done is to let us “reinvent ourselves” and “wrap the cloak of anonymity around us.” Today’s Network Age technologies, including social networks, have changed some of these rules and assumptions. As our profiles and ‘permanent records’ follow us, how will behavior and norms change in response? What are the implications of our connectedness for cities and urban design?
As promised, the Twilight Zone episode referenced at the end of the discussion is “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street.”
