Living systems, from cells to human society, can be analysed in terms of interactions within and between complex networks of interconnected components. Likewise, cities can be considered “flows of people, vehicles and information” (Sheller, 2004) transported along diverse urban networks. In this Flowprint of London, the city’s extensive bus network is used to sketch an animated portrait of the living city.
Each dot is a bus adhering to one of the 744 routes that make up the transport network. Brighter flows are visible where buses overlap, allowing us to see areas of high flow intensity emerge. Structural aspects of the network come alive through the simulation process, as we incrementally introduce more buses into the model.
