ABSTRACT
The essays found in Virtual + Psychologies provide a variety of possible definitions concerning public interiority, each part of our evolving understanding of that concept. 1 The definitions offered here are complex, multi-valent, and sometimes contradictory. Like the urban conditions that are both context for and constructed from these phenomena, they are (like Baudelaire’s modernity) transient, fleeting, and contingent. These interior conditions are unstable and immaterial, yet enable the sense of both belonging to and possessing our constructed environments (Figure 10.1).
