Feedback form is now closed.
Distributed and readily available technology is at the fingertips of publics and practitioners alike, enabling  access to seemingly democratized interfaces and generating endless feedback loops. Its availability creates new opportunities to enhance the experience and better understand the behavior of folks who use, manage, plan and design our built environment, thereby enabling work in increasingly functional and responsive relationships to our social and environmental policy frameworks. 
This panel will discuss the ever increasing use of technology across our professions and question whether its use is balanced, equitable, and accessible enough to engage and use with and without the public.
