Résumé:
The exhibition ‘Sensing Place’, which took place at the House of Electronic Arts Basel, engages with urban environments, new digital infrastructure and municipal space concepts. The transformed perception of cities and urban space due to today’s data-oriented society forms a major focus, wherein the mediatisation of the urban landscape plays a significant role. The increasing, hybridising overlap of physical urban space and virtual information space in everyday life is explored through a range of theoretical and artistic positions. Contributors include Sabine Himmelsbach, Dietmar Offenhuber, Mark Shepard, Yolande Harris, Christian Nold and Gordan Savii, among others.

Résumé:
Encompassed by this publication is a project to map, engage, reimagine and investigate design, research and practice in landscape architecture. Aside from seeking the relationship between academic and practical approaches, it asks whether the design process can also be research in producing work that is exemplary in dealing with the complexities of the discipline. Evident is the existence of tension between pragmatics, performance and social position in approaches to design in landscape architecture.
