The illustration &#8216;<strong>Cartographies of the Sky&#8217;<\/strong> on the front is a speculative map exploring the vertical geographies and digital infrastructures that cities will need in order to accommodate civilian drones. From restricted zones to geofences, flight paths to charging stations, it looks at how our airspace may become divided and occupied in the years to come.\u00a0We hope it can act as a tool for contemplation, raising critical questions around the future of public space and ownership of the skies above our heads.\u00a0The other side captures the project\u2019s thematic concerns around our changing relationships with algorithmic intelligence and increasingly autonomous machines. We designed a series of civilian drones with specific tasks and functions that represent the convergence of wider social and technological trends. <em>(The work is currently on show at the <a title=\"Opens in a new window\" href=\"http:\/\/www.vam.ac.uk\/content\/exhibitions\/all-of-this-belongs-to-you\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">V&amp;A<\/a> as part of the All Of This Belongs To You show.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>We collaborated with <a title=\"Opens in a new window\" href=\"http:\/\/timmaughanbooks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tim Maughan<\/a>\u00a0for the project, who wrote brilliant short fictions for each drone, and an introductory piece on how we hope to present the work as a live experience.
