SMART CITIES: RESEARCH AND
to manage knowledge cities CIVIC ENGAGEMENT IN A NETWORKED SOCIETY
MANU FERNÁNDEZ
As a researcher and urban policy consultant for the last ten years, I have always been involved in projects relating to local sustainability and analysis of urban economies. I am currently working as a freelance in three areas: adaptive strategies to cope with the economic crisis, the intersection of digital and social perspectives of bottom-up smart cities and, finally, the actions to boost economic revitalization in cities.

X THE INTELLIGENCE OF A CITY IS ON THE STREETS
“Under the seeming disorder of the old city, wherever the old city is working successfully, is a marvelous order for maintaining the safety of the streets and the freedom of the city. It is a complex order. Its essence is intricacy of sidewalk use, bringing with it a constant succession of eyes. This order is all composed of movement and change, and although it is life, not art, we may fancifully call it the art form of the city and liken it to the dance — not to a simple-minded precision dance with everyone kicking up at the same time, twirling in unison and bowing off en masse, but to an intricate ballet in which the individual dancers and ensembles all have distinctive parts which miraculously reinforce each other and compose an orderly whole.”
THE UNKNOWN VARIABLES OF URBAN EQUATION
Jane Jacobs, The Death and Life of Great American Cities
TECHNOLOGY ALONE IS NOT THE ANSWER
MORE THAN PASSIVE DATA COLLECTORS?
Usman Haque en Surely there's a smarter approach to smart cities? We, citizens, create and recreate our cities with every step we take, every conversation we have, every nod to a neighbor, every space we inhabit, every structure we erect, every transaction we make. A smart city should help us increase these serendipitous connections. It should actively and consciously enable us to contribute to data-making (rather than being mere consumers of it), and encourage us to make far better use of data that's already around us.
Kurt Iverson en Mobile media and the strategies of urban citizenship: discipline, responsibilisation, politicisation
(...)different applications of social and mobile media technologies will have different impacts on urban life, depending on the model of governance and stategies of citizenship they embody.
ROLE OF CITIZENS IN THE DATA OCEAN
David Eaves Lies, damned lies and open data Quite the opposite. Open data will not depoliticize debate. It will force citizens, and governments, to realize how politicized data is, and always has been. THE CONFLICTS REMAIN THE SAME
RANDONESS, MAIN URBAN FEATURE
DATA NEO-POSITIVISM / TECHNO-DETERMINISM
ASESPSIS vs. POLITIZATION
Usman Haque Notes from my talk at the Open IoT Assembly, June 16-17 2012 the spectacularisation of data, revelling in complexity only so that ‘experts’ can rescue us from the cacophony: scientists, urban planners, yes, even artists
