The future city will be enabled by Digital technology

Lucas DiLeo
Contributing Writer, Boston Orange

The future city will be enabled by Digital technology. These was the theme for Prof. MIT's Dennis Frenchman's talk at the Jan 6 MIT- Tsinghua Innovation Summit.

Prof. Frenchman discussed how digital technologies are being increasingly imbedded into cities and how these technologies are affecting life in cities. Back in 2000 we saw major tech firms developing info technologies to make cities smart. But these new digital technologies did not make the cities run any faster.

Now we are in the middle of a second wave, according to Frenchman. Cities are investing in new technologies and sensors - creating an urban intelligence. The most important product of these smart cities is not new technologies but the social changes that the new technologies are bringing about.

And as cities are facing increasing challenges the need for innovation by cities is increasing. 

These new activities are not being designed by engineers or university professors - but are driven by the customers and users of cities - the digital natives who grew up on the Internet, social media and mobile phones.

Millenniums are flocking to cities - they prefer the density, diversity, social networks of cities - and benefit of less commuting. This is where they are locating their new companies. 

And they are bringing their generations' values to cities and their own companies - less consumption and ownership oriented - more social and collaborative. Their networks and communities are global. They are health and environmental conscious in their outlooks and activities. These are the risk takers and the entrepreneurs who are moving to cities. And with $200 billion invested in startups - the proliferation of these innovative commercial models are changing the nature of business itself - and cities.

According to Frenchman, we are living a digital lifestyle where everything is incredibly connected. In the 20th century, highways were likened to arteries; we now have new urban pathways - the Internet and mobile systems creating a nervous system for the city. 

Thru mobile and sensor based applications a new science is developing for looking at how cities behave - and tracking them in real time. The analysis of cities tell us that cities are not doing well - there are inefficiencies, waste and a lot of inequality in the 20th century city. However, big data is creating opportunities to change this, and capitalize on underutilized urban assets.

Prof. Frenchman then discussed the traditional assumption of cities based on hierarchies, separation of spaces and specialization - and that the new work, business and living patters are fragmenting cities and bringing their parts together in surprising ways.

For instance, streets used to define the public vs private realm - at the building lines. With the new digital technologies those edges are becoming blurred. New models for storefronts and digital signs are creating ubiquitous potential for transformation and meeting places and advertising. And the use of media to create new types of commercial spaces.

New models for working are arising: WeWork and other co-working spaces now account for significant square footage in New York and London. And now they are looking to introduce new models for living: co-living space. 

These new companies and their services and production techniques are driving a new model for urban industry - efficient, clean, knowledge based and advanced manufacturing. And mixed into housing to create a new fine grain for living. Making efficient, live networks for community. 

This is the new Tech city. According to Prof. Frenchman, in the old economy we moved to where the factories were located. In the new economy we are moving to where the idea factories are situated.

Prof. Frenchman concluded his talk by presenting his projects for a digital media city in Seoul and a new business district for Jinan China that illustrate these themes.

Pi-hsien Chen was born in Taipei in 1950. When she was nine, she left Taiwan and one year later entered the University of Music in Cologne, Germany. She grew up in the home of her teacher, Hans-Otto Schmidt-Neuhaus, who was also the teacher of Karlheinz Stockhausen, Christoph Eschenbach, and Péter Eötvös. She later studied with Hans Leygraf and also with Wilhelm Kempff, Claudio Arrau, Geza Anda, and Tatjana Nikolajewa.
In 1972,  she won the First Prize at the International ARD Competition in Munich. Her special interest in Schoenberg and Bach also enabled her to win the Arnold Schoenberg Competition in Rotterdam and the Bach Competition in Washington, D.C.
She has performed in most of the major concert halls and with many of the world's major orchestras, particularly almost every orchestra within the German radio system. Among the orchestras with whom she has appeared are the Royal Philharmonic, the London Symphony, the BBC Orchestra, the Scottish Chamber Orchestra, the Concertgebouw Orchestra in Amsterdam, the Zurich Chamber Orchestra and Tonhalle Orchestra, as well as the NHK Orchestra in Tokyo. She has also been a partner in the Asko Ensemble in Amsterdam, Ensemble Modern in Frankfurt, and Ensemble Intercontemporain in Paris.
She has appeared in the festivals in Lucerne, Schwetzingen, Hong Kong, and Osaka, as well as the Berliner Festspiele, the Wien Modern festival, the Festival d'Autumne in Paris, the Strasbourg Festival, the South Bank Festival in London, the Huddersfield Festival, the BBC Proms, the Ruhr Piano Festival, and the festival in Roque d'Antéron. She represented German music at EXPO 2000 in Hanover, appearing with Alfons Kontarsky. She has been a frequent guest at the Donaueschingen Festival, and was one of six piano soloists in the world premiere of Georg Friedrich Haas's limited approximations in 2010.
Her dedication to new piano music evolved out of her collaboration with composers such as John Cage, Elliott Carter, Pierre Boulez, Karlheinz Stockhausen, György Kurtág, John Patrick Thomas, and Péter Eötvös, to whom she was married. An IRCAM documentary film by Walter Schels shows Boulez assisting Pi-hsien Chen as she prepares for the world premiere of his Douze Notations. In "Black and White", a documentary film about Elliott Carter, Pi-hsien Chen is the pianist in his Double Concerto for Harpsichord & Piano and Two Chamber Orchestras.
She was a professor specializing in contemporary piano music


Reviews:
"Chen creates a masterful "Art of the Fugue".
(Richard Buell, The Boston Globe)
"...Ms Chen's recording of Jean Barraqué's Sonata is remarkable. She takes a sparkling, crystalline view of the music in a way that brings it near the music of Barraqué's principal French contemporary, Pierre Boulez...."
(Paul Griffiths, The New York Times)
"...Pi-hsien Chen's opening to Beethoven's Bagatelles announced that the audience would be treated to musical universes that were clear and clean, contained and carefully considered and phrased.... In the carefully curated and bigger-scope-than-normal Scarlatti sonatas, Chen wielded a rich palette while expressing an enlightening variety of characters, lines, and moods within each sonata ...." 
"Pi-hsien Chen's playing was strikingly colorful and exciting, and the duo with Nicholas Kitchen played Mozart's Sonata with real Mozartian elegance...."
