Dan Hill "Soft Infrastructure Superpowers"

Dan Hill "Soft Infrastructure Superpowers" (Lift09 EN) from Lift Conference on Vimeo.

Dan Hill, from urban engineering firm Arup, revisits the past vision of the city of the future and shows they turned out differently. He discusses the important interplay between urban soft infrastructure (people, networks, culture, society, civic relationships) and hard infrastructure. Which leads him to the role of design thinking in developing this new layer information/services based on personal informatics. Distributed by Tubemogul.
