The City of the Future is a project that sets out to explore contrasts between the familiarity of old city fabric, the strangeness of the past, and the newness of present-day experience. With archive film of the past century and other documents of urban experience in literature and so on, it will develop a critique of present-day and possible future spatial experience. The City of the Future is a research project at the Royal College of Art, London, supported by the UK's Arts and Humanities Research Board
