Urban creativity is an umbrella term for a range of activities within, or in direct relation to, the city. These activities take place in different urban environments around the globes and strive to, or are perceived to strive to, intervene in how the spatial, temporal, political and material aspects of urban life are communicated, interpreted and acted upon. An important characteristic of situated urban creative practices is that they push legal, moral and cultural boundaries by intervening and exploring alternative ways of using, producing, experiencing and understanding the city.
