In his landmark essay "The Overexposed City", Paul Virilio1 argued that media and communications technologies were leading to the collapse of the historically distinctive space-time of the city as a habitable human milieu. Virilio attributed this collapse directly to the way in which "telematics' was producing a new logic of spatial organisation, in which older modes of boundary formation were being re-routed according to a new topology.
