Summary/Abstract: Contemporary urban social phenomena are formed within physical space, architecture and “urban media territories”. It requires redefining the concept of “public” space which exceeds the physical dimension of the city. Hence the “public” is determined by a social activity in the hybrid space. In digitally mediated urban spaces social relations are being actively constructed in the process of participation taking place within complex spatio-temporal frames. The aim of the article is to present some examples of using screens as “social interfaces” in the hybrid urban space. They not only change the nature of social communication in the urban space, but also transform it into a “relational space”, thus creating new forms of the urban social experience.
