Introduction by Anton Falkeis, Editor, Head of Special Topics in Architecture, I oA, University of Applied Arts Vienna
How to read the book: Ben James, Co-Editor, I oA Researcher, University of Applied Arts Vienna

Nonlinear Urbanism is a collection of speculative essays discussing a multitude of disruptive and nonlinear futures of urban agglomerations. The book is based on urban innovation research conducted at the Department for Special Topics in Architecture at the Institute of Architecture at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. In addition to investigations by students, renowned experts contribute to questions and ideas related to our urban future.

The structure of the book is nonlinear in itself. Graphically and thematically interconnected cross-references allow for both a contextual and sequential reading of the book. Merging the printed volume with an additional digital layer offers an interlaced and simultaneous experience, navigating multiple levels of content, thereby mirroring the complexity of urban systems.
