“Paris : invisible city” by Bruno Latour & Emilie Hermant: First Impressions

  • Very original way to represent the city. Raises the question of stereotypical representations and images that are normally used to attract mass tourism for economic growth.
  • I like how thorough the information is, and how well it works together with the narrative aspect. You really learn a lot about all the different systems that work behind the scenes, as well as how they contrast with the everyday experience of a habitant and consumer of these services.
  • I admire the fact that these images and interpretations will serve forever as a look into the Paris of 2006: through pictures and stories I see a different modern world than the one we have now. Ruled by technology and gadgets yet with hardware and software that can be considered archaic in 2020.
  • I really don’t enjoy the interface, I don’t think this website is user friendly.
  • I also have to admit the difficulty I have to understand the all the steps and their names.
