<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://keiichimatsuda.com/" target="_blank">Keiichi Matsuda</a> did it again. After the success of <a href="http://artimes.rouli.net/2010/01/domestic-robocop.html" target="_blank">Domestic Robocop</a>, the architecture graduate and filmaker got the nomination for the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Silver Medal award, for his new video "<a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TL80ScTLlM&feature=player_embedded">Augmented City</a>". As in his previous work, in this new video Matsuda describes a future world overlaid with digital information, whose built environment can be manipulated by the individual. In this way, the objective physical world is transformed in a subjective virtual space.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">In Matsuda's own words:</p> <blockquote style="text-align: justify;"><i>Augmented City explores the social and spatial implications of an AR-supported future. 'Users' of the city can browse through channels of the augmented city, creating aggregated customised environments. Identity is constructed and broadcast, while local records and coupons litter the streets. The augmented city is an architectural construct modulated by the user, a liquid city of stratified layers that perceptually exists in the space between the self and the built environment. This subjective space allows us to re-evaluate current trends, and examine our future occupation of the augmented city.</i></blockquote> <p style="text-align: center;"><object height="340" width="376" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/3TL80ScTLlM?fs=1&hl=it_IT" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /> <param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3TL80ScTLlM?fs=1&hl=it_IT" /> <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p> <p style="text-align: center;">TO CHANGE FROM SPLIT SCREEN TO 3D/2D, CLICK THE '3D' TAB AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR VIEWER<a href="http://vimeo.com/14294054" target="_blank" title="http://vimeo.com/14294054" rel="nofollow" dir="ltr"></a></p>
