Temporality infuses the logics and processes of the digital economy. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the smart city. This lecture will chart how the digital is reconfiguring space-time, map the temporalities of smart cities and detail the various ways in which smart cities mediate and are mediated by temporal relations, rhythms and modalities. It argues that the space-times of the smart city are multiple, heterogeneous, contingent and dynamic, and that more needs to be done to understand their implications for urban society and economy.
