Résumé:
Surveillance cameras ensure our safety, antennae and sensors track the speed of our cars, while electronic gates decide who is to be granted access to an increasing number of delimited zones. The book charts this international trend, using case studies in Shanghai, Tokyo, London and Rio de Janeiro, as well as cities in the Netherlands. What are the consequences of an ultra-monitored society? When does the technology aid us and when does it restrict us? Who wields control over the technology? And who sits behind the contraptions that are tracking us? Expert authors tackle these questions and make recommendations for the future. Incorporating digital media into the book's design, tags make it possible to download supplementary information and videos via an Internet-capable mobile device.

Résumé:
In this book, Edwin Heathcote looks at the cultural impact of street furniture using photography as a measure of how these things have become indispensable components of the cityscape. Based mainly in and on London – but including New York, Paris and Budapest – Heathcote uses history, personal reflection and the lenses of photographers to examine the status of these urban artefacts in both the contemporary imagination and the city streets themselves. It looks at the changing landscape of the cityscape and the way in which street furniture has been adapted to address new technologies, the culture of surveillance and shifts in taste, orthodoxy and material culture. On the Street looks at the language of street furniture reflected through the gaze of photography and contemporary culture. It is a book about the elements of the streetscape which can exert an increasing impact on our interaction with the cities we inhabit.

Résumé:
Voilà maintenant quarante ans que le graffiti moderne s'est emparé de nos métropoles. Tendance de l'art urbain, le sticker art a connu un développement récent tel qu'il supplante parfois le graffiti classique. Tout en introduisant une forme d'expression nouvelle, les autocollants et affiches, faciles et rapides à coller, permettent une diffusion sensiblement plus importante. Expliquer l'incroyable ascension du sticker art tout en retraçant de manière engageante une scène vaste et mouvante est l'une des premières ambitions de ce livre. C'est donc un échantillon de techniques et d'artistes qui est présenté ici, des pionniers tels Swoon, Shepard Fairey et Invader, jusqu'aux stars montantes.
