ISD Design Science Seminar
Smart City Islands/Malcolm McCullough Ph.D.
Join us Friday, November 8, 2019 from 9:30-11:00 am in Chrysler Center, Room 151 (2121 Bonisteel Blvd, Ann Arbor) for our Design Science Seminar Series with speaker Malcolm McCullough, Ph.D. Dr. McCullough is a Professor of Architecture, Taubman Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan. He is the author of the books Downtime on the Microgrid (forthcoming 2020), Ambient Commons (2013), Digital Ground (2005), and Abstracting Craft (1997) all with the MIT Press.
Whereas “the smart city” has most often been understood as a totality, top-down and always-on, in today’s climate-altered reality more agendas instead need to advance a more locally clustered, adaptive resilience. Otherwise, the most salient aspect of any future smart city is its fragility. While not a report on complexity simulations, this talk reexamines some perhaps-familiar principles of adaptive clustering from three less conventional perspectives.
