From the time of telegraphy and radio, wireless signals have permeated the city. Previously, wireless communication typically involved correspondence from person to machine, yet this transfer now occurs predominantly from machine to machine. Wireless clouds are suspended over cities, enabling machines to communicate and facilitate urban automation. Above and beyond the circulation of messages moves a flood of material descriptions, where the city circulates as extended phenomena. In the future wireless city, an urban ecology circulates: Forty degrees Celsius, traffic moving at 5 MPH, noise at 72 decibels: the air vibrates with local detail that searches for remote modes of assembly.
