The intervening 100 years have seen periodic reengagements with the spatial reframing of architecture and cities in these media. They have also witnessed the emergence of new modes of representation in the worlds of design, planning, art, heritage, cultural studies and the social sciences more broadly.
Taking the City Symphony and its historic moment in time as a starting point, this conference seeks to explore the past, present and future of how we visualise people, places, cities and life. It invites architects, urban planners and landscape designers engaged in the visualisation of buildings and cities; filmmakers exploring city representation; interior designers examining spatial imaging. It welcomes insights into the history of painting from a spatiotemporal standpoint; the influence and evolution of photographic representation of place; the role of sculpture in exploring and integrating space.
The conference has several strands that reflect the research areas of each university partner and Routledge as publisher. They include:
