Recent scholarship on smart cities and platform urbanism has explored the very wide range of data harvested from urban environments by digital devices of many kinds, analysing how not only efficiencies but also profits are sought through the extraction, circulation, transformation, commodification, integration, and re‐use of data. Much of that data is generated by smartphone applications. This paper looks at the design of a group of eight smartphone apps by a range of different actors in Milton Keynes, a small UK city with a large number of smart city initiatives. The apps are understood as a co‐constitutive interface between data circulations and embodied users. The paper focuses specifically on the data that the apps generated and shared and on how the app designers anticipated that the data would create different kinds of value for embodied app users. While some data circulations were understood as ways of generating financial value, the paper argues that a number of other forms of value were assumed in the app design. The paper identifies two of these, which it terms normative values and interactive values. It examines how the data mobilised by the smart city apps enacts particular versions of these values, and how those values co‐constitute specific kinds of bodies, agencies, and geographies in digitally mediated cities.

智慧城市中的平台城市化、智能手机应用程序和评估数据

最近关于智慧城市和平台城市主义的学术研究探索了各种数字设备从城市环境中收集的非常广泛的数据,分析了如何通过提取、流通、转化、商品化、整合和获取利润来寻求效率和利润。数据的再利用。其中大部分数据是由智能手机应用程序生成的。本文着眼于米尔顿凯恩斯(Milton Keynes)的一系列不同参与者设计的一组八个智能手机应用程序,米尔顿凯恩斯是一个拥有大量智慧城市计划的英国小城市。这些应用程序被理解为数据流通和实体用户之间的共同构成接口。该论文特别关注应用程序生成和共享的数据,以及应用程序设计者如何预期这些数据将为实体应用程序用户创造不同类型的价值。虽然一些数据流通被理解为产生财务价值的方式,但该论文认为在应用程序设计中假设了许多其他形式的价值。该论文确定了其中的两个,将其称为规范价值和互动价值。它研究了智能城市应用程序调动的数据如何制定这些价值观的特定版本,以及这些价值观如何共同构成数字化城市中特定类型的机构、机构和地理区域。该论文确定了其中的两个,将其称为规范价值和互动价值。它研究了智能城市应用程序调动的数据如何制定这些价值观的特定版本,以及这些价值观如何共同构成数字化城市中特定类型的机构、机构和地理区域。该论文确定了其中的两个,将其称为规范价值和互动价值。它研究了智能城市应用程序调动的数据如何制定这些价值观的特定版本,以及这些价值观如何共同构成数字化城市中特定类型的机构、机构和地理区域。
