No Place extract...
from the essay 'In the First Place' - from the collection of essays , 'Placing Words - Symbols, Space & the City' by William J Mitchell
"Our sense that a city functions as collective memory and as a crucial site of shared cultural reference depends upon its power to provide virtual as well as physical settings for interchanges among its inhabitants".
"The physical settings that we inhabit are increasingly populated with spoken words, musical performances, texts & images that have been spatially displaced from their points of origin".
