Abstract

The vision of the conscious city has entered the radar. It takes as its heartland, the idea of a ‘conversation’ between inhabitants, digitally imbued objects and responsive architectural fabrics at the city scale. Can advances in the internet of everything, neuroscience, AI and big data enable social opportunities in a more sentient city? This chapter considers the ethics of an architectural dialogic — bringing questions of computational neutrality and democratic participation to the fore in the design and curation of ‘intelligent architecture’.
