Cities XL: Next Generation City Simulation
Thursday, June 18th, 2009 | Planning, Technology, Trends | No Comments
Growing up, my first computer game was SimCity (the original). Ever since then, I’ve become fascinated with cities and, more importantly, the spaces between our real cities and the virtual communities we create online. I eventually ended up in the field of urban planning (unfortunately, it is not appropriate to release monsters on your city) and devote much of my mental and professional energy to imagining new ways to engage people around sustainability and planning.
