Join Professor Christoph Lindner, Vice-Chancellor and President of the Royal College of Art, for a talk on the digital-spatial strategies that cities like London are using to revivify urban public spaces in the wake of the pandemic.  Drawing on findings from his recently published book Aesthetics of Gentrification, Professor Lindner argues that many cities worldwide are experiencing a rise in embodied aesthetic practices – rooted in digital/immersive forms of urbanism – following the restrictions of lockdown and social distancing.  Far from being unique to London or the post-pandemic moment, these practices have a long, deep history tied to the neoliberal project of post-industrial renewal. The difference now is that the after-effects of the pandemic, combined with new digital technologies of simulation and immersion, are making it possible to remake cities in more extreme and divisive ways.  As cities recover from the pandemic and urban publics return to the shared spaces of the city, there is urgency in understanding these transformations and their effects on contemporary urban life.
