THE FUTURE OF CITIES

Description

This is a conversation starter first, a video second. I’d love to hear your thoughts on cities, the future, and this project. I shared some words, a reading list and featured interviewees here: medium.com/@oscarboyson/the-future-of-cities-ba4e26c807fe#.lrpyoofi4 * Note that the first shot in the movie a “Garbage Truck in Taipei” is actually in Changhua City, also in Taiwan. Thank you Taiwanese friends for pointing this out! Thank you to everybody who contributed! Trust me when I say that even if I didn’t get your footage in the cut, we can feel it in the finished product. I want to keep telling urban stories and building on these ideas – hope you do too. Knowledge is Power. A collaboration with The Nantucket Project.
