Abstract
It is all too easy for people living in urban environments
(urbanites) to get caught up in the busy hectic
worlds of their lives. There is so much to do and
enjoy, ranging from work, to playing and watching
sports, cinemas, ballets, libraries, exercise… the list
is endless. Each of these experiences provides stimulation
for the brain and perhaps sometimes relaxation.
In the urban world we are constantly bombarded with
visual, acoustic, tactile, or olfactory sensory stimulation.
Each of these demands our attention, processing,
and response, be that to fight or flight, inhibit or
consume.
