Description
Book SynopsisMore than a physical space, a hypercity is a real city overlaid with information networks that document the past, catalyze the present, and project future possibilities. Hypercities are always under construction.
HyperCities puts digital humanities theory into practice to chart the proliferating cultural records of places around the world.
Trade ReviewA provocative overview and theoretical explication of ‘thick mapping’ projects that show enormous potential for complex, multilayered, multidimensional explorations of urban areas.
HyperCities is an important book that makes signal contributions to the digital humanities. -- Matthew K. Gold, Associate Professor of English and Digital Humanities, Graduate Center, City University of New York
