In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, urban development is no longer just about expanding spaces—it has transformed into a process of "technical reproduction" that redefines the very concept of the city. How do modern technologies impact urban growth dynamics, and what is their relationship with urban "ruminación"?
What is Technical Reproduction?
Technical Reproduction refers to the integration of digital technologies, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things (IoT) into urban infrastructure to reconfigure and enhance its efficiency. This process not only transforms the physical form but also redefines how inhabitants interact with the city.
Urban "Ruminación": Between Evolution and Repetition
Urban Ruminación is a phenomenon where cities reproduce the same design and functional models without adding real value. However, with technical reproduction, this "ruminación" becomes positive:
- Data Reuse: Analyzing movement and consumption patterns to improve services.
- Upgrading Old Infrastructure: Converting traditional buildings into smart spaces without demolition.
- Replicating Successful Models: Applying smart city solutions in new local contexts.
Positive Impact: From "Ruminación" to Innovation
- Improved Energy Efficiency: Smart energy management systems reduce consumption by up to 30%.
- Extended Infrastructure Lifespan: Continuous monitoring prevents collapses and delays the need for replacement.
- New Economic Opportunities: Emergence of jobs in data analysis and predictive maintenance.
Challenges: When "Ruminación" Turns Negative
- Technological Dependency: Overreliance on ready-made solutions that may not suit local contexts.
- Exclusion of Vulnerable Groups: Elderly or low-income populations may not benefit from digital transformation.
- Erosion of Visual Identity: Applying global models can strip cities of their unique character.
How to Achieve Smart Cities Without Negative "Ruminación"?
- Participatory Design: Involving residents in developing technological solutions.
- Local Innovation: Creating technologies that address each city’s specific needs.
- Infrastructure Flexibility: Designing systems that are scalable and adaptable over time.
