LT

Miestovaizdis - tai kultūrinių artefaktų visuma ir tekstas, perteikiantis kultūros turinius "skaitytojams" ir atspindintis minėtų turinių pokyčius. Megapolio miestovaizdis unikalus tuo, kad jis tampa teksto forma, sutinkama ne tik konkrečiame megapolyje, bet ir kituose, žemesnio hierarchinio lygmens urbanistiniuose dariniuose. Kitaip tariant - jis tampa nelokaliu fenomenu. Straipsnyje analizuojamos megapolio miestovaizdžio hipertekstualizacijos tendencijos.
