In collaboration with the British Council, onedotzero curated and produced Re-Imagining the City, a year long touring project designed to highlight how nurturing creative industries and communities can lead to urban regeneration within cities, leaving a positive legacy for future generations.

London-based multi-media creatives D-Fuse worked with local filmmakers, designers and musicians on exchange residencies in eleven cities across Asia and Australasia throughout 2007 and 2008. The outcome of these residencies was ‘Surface’; a multi-screen Live Cinema performance which documented each city through the eyes of the local and guest artists, evolving with each stage of the tour. The final cut "Endless Cities" was screened at onedotzero_adventures in motion 2008 at the BFI IMAX.

These live performances were contextualized through a series of screenings, panel discussions residencies and workshops, encouraging industry leaders, academics, artists and members of the public to engage in the debate about how art and design can help to influence and shape cities.

Re-Imagining the City formed an integral part of the British Council’s Creative Cities, a three year cultural and artistic partnership between East Asia and the UK to develop creative cities with successful knowledge economies where global citizens can thrive.

onedotzero are now collaborating with D-Fuse and Hong Kong publishers IdN to produce a book and DVD publication documenting the Re-Imagining the City project due out later in 2010.
