Yet these models limit our understanding of what we can know about a city. A City Is Not a Computer reveals how cities encompass myriad forms of local and indigenous intelligences and knowledge institutions, arguing that these resources are a vital supplement and corrective to increasingly prevalent algorithmic models.Shannon Mattern begins by examining the ethical and ontological implications of urban technologies and computational models, discussing how they shape and in many cases profoundly limit our engagement with cities. She looks at the methods and underlying assumptions of data-driven urbanism, and demonstrates how the "city-as-computer" metaphor, which undergirds much of today's urban policy and design, reduces place-based knowledge to information processing. Mattern then imagines how we might sustain institutions and infrastructures that constitute more diverse, open, inclusive urban forms. She shows how the public library functions as a steward of urban intelligence, and describes the scales of upkeep needed to sustain a city's many moving parts, from spinning hard drives to bridge repairs.Incorporating insights from urban studies, data science, and media and information studies, A City Is Not a Computer offers a visionary new approach to urban planning and design. 410 0$aPlaces books ;$v2. 606 $aUrban renewal 606 $aSociology, Urban 606 $aSmart cities 606 $aCity planning 610 $aAccessibility. 610 $aAdvertising. 610 $aAmerican Forests. 610 $aArchivist. 610 $aBloomberg Terminal. 610 $aCARTO. 610 $aCareer. 610 $aCivic engagement. 610 $aClimate change. 610 $aCollaboration. 610 $aColonialism. 610 $aCompStat. 610 $aComputation. 610 $aComputer scientist. 610 $aConsideration. 610 $aConspiracy theory. 610 $aControl engineering. 610 $aControl room. 610 $aCopyright. 610 $aCritical practice. 610 $aCultural heritage. 610 $aData set. 610 $aDatabase. 610 $aDecision tree. 610 $aDecision-making. 610 $aDesign tool. 610 $aDesigner. 610 $aDigital humanities. 610 $aEcosystem. 610 $aEmerging technologies. 610 $aEntrepreneurship. 610 $aEnvironmental justice. 610 $aEpistemology. 610 $aEric Klinenberg. 610 $aFunding. 610 $aGenerative Design. 610 $aGeographer. 610 $aGovernance. 610 $aHardware store. 610 $aHousehold. 610 $aIdeology. 610 $aIllustration. 610 $aInformation literacy. 610 $aInformation management. 610 $aInformation science. 610 $aInfrastructure. 610 $aInstitution. 610 $aKnowledge economy. 610 $aLaundry. 610 $aLibrarian. 610 $aLibrarians. 610 $aLibrary. 610 $aLiterature. 610 $aMachine learning. 610 $aMeasurement. 610 $aMierle Laderman Ukeles. 610 $aMovement for Black Lives. 610 $aObsolescence. 610 $aOperating system. 610 $aOperationalization. 610 $aOslo School of Architecture and Design. 610 $aPark. 610 $aPedagogy. 610 $aPhilosopher. 610 $aPolice. 610 $aPolitics. 610 $aPollution. 610 $aPrinceton University Press. 610 $aProcessing (programming language). 610 $aPublic Knowledge. 610 $aPublic infrastructure. 610 $aPublic library. 610 $aPublishing. 610 $aPush-button. 610 $aRacism. 610 $aReal estate development. 610 $aReproductive labor. 610 $aRestorative justice. 610 $aScaffolding. 610 $aSidewalk Labs. 610 $aSmart city. 610 $aSmartphone. 610 $aSupply chain. 610 $aTax. 610 $aTechnology. 610 $aTelecommunication. 610 $aThe Various. 610 $aTree planting. 610 $aTwitter. 610 $aUnemployment. 610 $aUniversity of California, Berkeley. 610 $aUniversity of Toronto. 610 $aUniversity of Washington. 610 $aUrban ecology. 610 $aUrban history. 610 $aUrban planning. 610 $aUrbanism. 610 $aWashington University in St. Louis. 610 $aWi-Fi. 610 $aYear. 615 0$aUrban renewal. 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 615 0$aSmart cities. 615 0$aCity planning. 676 $a307.1216 686 $aRB 10627$qDE-16$2rvk 700 $aMattern$b Shannon Christine$01240708 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bHNK 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910554233203321 996 $aA city is not a computer$92878405 997 $aUNINA
