## [Animating the City at City Atrium London](https://animate.org.uk/editorial/2005/10/animating-the-city/)

**Thursday 3 November 2005 18:30**

For its first programme at City Atrium, animate! presents a dynamic, diverting, sometimes disturbing but always hugely imaginative exploration of urban lives and locales. Nine diverse films, selected from the ever-expanding catalogue of animate! commissions, reveal fresh perspectives of the city - screened in London’s stunning brand-new arts space.

Following the programme, writer and *Time Out* film critic Gareth Evans will be in conversation with Ian Bourn [Black, White & Green](https://animate.org.uk/films/blackwhiteandgreen/) and Daniel Saul [The Nuclear Train](https://animate.org.uk/films/nucleartrain/), discovering what inspires them about living in the metropolis and how they create their deeply personal visions of the city.
