This course provides an overview of the development of urban image, explores how the way we think about urban areas has evolved over time, and reflects on how both continue to inform the modern profession of urban planning. The course will examine the origins and evolution of the urban world as well as human attempts to intervene and manipulate it. The perceptual characteristics of the urban environment, stresses the ways that individuals mentally organize their own sensory experience of cities. Increasingly, however, city imaging is supplemented and constructed by exposure to visual media, rather than by direct sense experience of urban realms. City images are not static but subject to constant revision and manipulation by a variety of media-savvy individuals and institutions.
