An artistic exploration of the urban situation in the Ruhr region.

Just as streets, canals and railway lines connect the cities of this region, the "Connected Cities" media arts projects uses modern telecommunications techniques and the Internet to link up the different places artistically and to bring people into dialogue with one another.

This book documents interactive and spatial projects by established artists, and also examines the work of younger artists like Paul Garrin, Lynn Hershman and Supreme Particles.
