Season 3 - Electronic Cities with Dr. Sebastien Darchen
Why have certain cities around the world developed as Electronic Cities?
This is the question that a new book, Electronic Cities aims to answer. This week on POP; The History Makers, I'll be looking at certain European Electronic Cities with one of the book's editors, Sébastien Darchen, who holds a Ph.D. in Urban Studies.
Electronic Cities looks at the connection between music and planning policies and the development of urban electronic scenes in specific cities around the world. Other editors include Damien Charrieras, an Associate Professor at the School of Creative Media (City University of Hong Kong), and John Willsteed, an academic who was a former member of the Australian band - The Go-Betweens.
Contributions are from a combination of urban scholars and musicians - I'll just mention a few of the musicians - Rudi Esch, former bass player with Die Krupps. Erik Stein, the musician and writer, and Berlin-based musician and record producer Mark Reeder.
