Abstract

The present paper elaborates on the major transformation processes of a city into a cybercity and the process of embedding the virtual into the real. The paper aims to shed light on the integration of human capabilities (intelligence, imagination, creativity) by use of ICTs applications that drive processes, which transform the city of geography and place into a hybrid: the cybercity. The emerging cybercity expands beyond its traditional geographical boundaries of place, embracing a new digital virtual space, which is placeless and timeless. At the same time, the embedding of human intelligence in the urban material structures creates intelligent and smart environments that transform society.
