Martian Smart city
Digital Futures 2020
This socialist-informed Martian urban framework reimagines interstellar migration through vertical urbanization, leveraging canyon topography for radiation shielding. Boids algorithm simulates self-organizing urban expansion and optimizes spatial planning composition for collective efficiency. The vertically stratified Martian city ascends through specialized tiers: summit-level agricultural domes and energy labs sustain bioregulation; mid-level modular residences balance private/communal living; lower strata concentrate educational, medical, and social infrastructure. Anchored by subterranean industrial zones, the design orchestrates resource flows through algorithmic socialist principles, transforming the canyon into a metabolic hierarchy. This computational heterotopia redefines extraterrestrial habitation through equitable resource circuits and collectivist spatial syntax, where canyon geology and socialist urbanism coevolve as symbiotic systems.
