| Abstract |
Smart cities strive to make our lives easier: utilizing big data, our routes get optimized, work steps become more efficient and resources better used. However, what about the emotional potential of a smart city? How could it be triggered and who releases it? Step by step we tried to grasp the immaterial layer of our beloved city. What started out with simple experiments of perspective shifts, soon led us to the question what exactly makes us feel like a part of a bigger system - but stays hidden. What can be sensed yet not seen? How do we measure the intangible? Finding interconnections between different occurrences throughout the city enabled us to measure indicators of emotional patterns. By using simple parameters, our Summer Scouts try to grasp one of the communal feelings sensed by the population of Vienna: the beginning of summer. |
