Professor Metzger (KTH) uses the automated exterminationist approach to other-than-human life as an entry point for thinking critically about the ethico-political ideals that underpin the Smart City concept. He focuses in particular on issues relating to the limits of inclusion in the smart city. What
are those existences and phenomena that are deemed to be incompossible, that is: fundamentally unable to co-exist, with the smart city vision? He will problematise who is welcome in the smart city and under what conditions and prerequisites, noting that there will always be certain limitations.
