克里斯托弗·穆斯塔法·格兰特·科万先生毕业于MIT,任教于美国帕斯设计学院,现为清华大学客座教授,执教领域涉及城市规划、建筑与媒体等。在《都市媒体:整合的体验》一文中,科万提出将有形的物理世界与数字领域相整合的思想,诞生“都市媒体”这一名词。都市媒体既可以看作是一种概念过程,也可以作为一种操作系统,后者的目的就是捕捉并刻画城市社会(文化)、有形自然(环境)和虚拟(技术)方面的动态互动,目标是形成“综合智能”——一种不仅能够解决城市中心的问题,也可以解决全球面临的巨大挑战的网络。科万用他与学生为纽约、迪拜与北京设计的三个项目来说明“都市媒体”的运用。都市媒体最终将在人与城市之间形成整合体验的互动。 Christopher Mustapha Grant Cohen graduated from MIT, teaching at Parsons School of Design in the United States and now a visiting professor at Tsinghua University. He coaches urban planning, architecture and media. In his article “Urban Media: An Integrated Experience,” Cohen proposed the idea of ​​integrating the physical physical world into the digital realm and the birth of the term “metropolitan media.” Urban media can be viewed both as a conceptual process and as an operating system whose purpose is to capture and characterize the dynamic interaction of urban social (cultural), tangible (environmental) and virtual (technical) Is the formation of “integrated intelligence” - a network that addresses not only the city center’s problems but also the enormous challenges that the world faces. Section used the three projects he and his students designed for New York, Dubai and Beijing to illustrate the use of “metropolitan media.” Urban media will eventually form an integrated experience of interaction between people and cities.
