Abstract

The rising of Information Communication Technology influences cities globally. “Info-city” is the very topic to be reconsidered if each city acts as a combination of the physical and virtual. This research is an attempt to understand and formalize the comprehension of Taiwan people about “Info-city”. For the sake of reliability, there are 37 interviewees from Taiwanis enterprises providing experiences of daily urban lives as a field to explore. In order to organize oral corpus, the research method applies encoding in term of cognitive semantics. Every sentence in the database is regarded as a basic unit to analyze. Besides that, thereis a framework consisted of two analytical dimensions to reveal a clear picture of the collective minds. The results are concluded that concepts of “info-city” in Taiwan value the mechanism of synergy most instead of the effect of substitution as an arbitrary assumption among urban studies
