City of Bits: Space, Place, and the Infobahn

by William J Mitchell

City of Bits: Space, Place, and the Infobahn Cover

Synopses & Reviews

William Mitchell makes extensive use of practical examples and illustrations in a technically well-grounded yet accessible examination of architecture and urbanism in the context of the digital telecommunication revolution, the ongoing miniaturization of electronics, the commodification of bits, and the growing domination of software over materialized form.
