1、何为CDSA（城市数字表皮艺术）？“城市数字表皮艺术”（City Digital Skin Art, CDSA,）是基于公共空间中的屏幕与建筑外立面等城市表皮，关注数字时代的基本状况，并以公共艺术的数字化表达为诉求的艺术形式。它具有结合城市公共空间与数字公共空间的特征，希望通过公共艺术促进公众有关技术、空间与城市生活共生的社会想象力。
“City Digital Skin Art” (City Digital Skin Art, CDSA,) is an art form based on urban skins such as screens and building facades in public spaces, focusing on the basic conditions of the digital age, and seeking the digital expression of public art . It has the characteristics of combining urban public space and digital public space, and hopes to promote the public’s social imagination about the symbiosis of technology, space and urban life through public art.

城市数字表皮是城市环境的一部分。城市环境在不同程度上塑造了城市的外观面貌，是城市的形象表达、生活方式的体现，也影响着城市中的社会关系。数字表皮是数字界面的一部分，它位于私人的生活空间与更宽泛的社会空间之间，具有转化、连接，最终沟通二者的潜力。结合二者的数字表皮艺术，是以艺术激发并实现这种潜力。
The urban digital skin is part of the urban environment. The urban environment shapes the appearance of the city to varying degrees, is the image expression of the city, the embodiment of the way of life, and also affects the social relations in the city. The digital skin is the part of the digital interface that sits between the private living space and the wider social space, with the potential to transform, connect, and ultimately communicate the two. The digital skin art that combines the two is to inspire and realize this potential with art.
