Material Cyborgs; Asserted Boundaries: Formulating the Cyborg as a Translator: by Nishant Shah — published Nov 07, 2011 — last modified Oct 25, 2015 05:57 AM — filed under: Body, Research, Cyborgs, Net Cultures, Publications, Researchers at Work

Mathematisation of the Urban and not Urbanisation of Mathematics: Smart Cities and the Primitive Accumulation of Data - Accepted Abstract: by Sumandro Chattapadhyay — published May 25, 2015 — last modified Nov 13, 2015 05:47 AM — filed under: Data Systems, Space, Research, Smart Cities, Researchers at Work

Even where it is machines which process the vast amounts of data produced by the city so much so that the ruling and managerial classes disappear from view, it is usually the logic of capital that steers the flows of data, people and things. Yet what other futures of the city may be possible within the smart city, what collective intelligence may it bring forth?" The Fibreculture Journal has accepted an abstract of mine for its upcoming issue on 'Computing the City.'
