It's 2023 in London.
You can make a phone call on your watch and report a traffic jam with a button
on your glasses. But how will we really live, work and play? What kinds of
constraints and opportunities will future Londoners face?
This series of imaginary Londoners was
produced for a workshop in September 2013 by a collaboration between Arup, Social
Life, Re.Work, Commonplace, Tim Maughan and Nesta. They build
on the team's knowledge, from urban neighbourhood engagement to smart technologies in the city.
These profiles can never be perfect or all inclusive. They are a tool for
exploring the needs and desires we should consider when designing a smarter
London. More details: background information and the key urban trends we developed.
Sessions 2 and 3 of TEDCity2.0 in New
York will be streamed live at Nesta on the evening of 20 September.
