Abstract

In the aftermath of the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes, Christchurch, New Zealand is framed as a 'transitional' city, moving from its demolished past to a speculative future. The ADA Mesh Cities project asks what role media art and networks may play in the transitional city, and the practices of remembering, and reimagining space.
