By reviewing different perspectives of discussing cultural and technology，this paper finds that there are a lot of studies taking the economic perspective to explore how to help traditional industries transforming or upgrading by converging culture and technology. The business model and the related policy promotions seem to be the main focus. At the meantime，the discussions on big data and smart city or digital city which have been developed and popularized just in recent years in China take the perspective of emphasizing new technology. This paper attempts to propose a new perspective studying issues on the convergence of culture，art and technology beyond economic and technological perspectives. This new perspective is termed as spatial perspective arguing that discussions on how to merge culture and new technologies should be based on the question of how to improve the quality of life in urban as well as rural spaces. The spatial turn in particular emphasizes the role of arts and technologies in urban spaces. This spatial perspective helps to eliminate the gap between the economic perspective dominated by people in studying cultural/creative economy or cultural policy，and the technology perspective dominated by people in ICT and big data sphere. Based on some examples mostly from European countries showing the connections of arts，technology and urban spaces，this paper argues that the urban innovations of arts and technologies and their applications and practices in urban spaces are benefit to the development of humanistic urbanization which is much more different from the old model of neoliberal urbanization. The smart city is therefore more likely to be developed towards ahumanistic smart city. The authors of this paper discusses those issues related to arts，technologies and urban spaces and their connections and implications on the issues of new model of urbanization and the conceptualization of humanistic smart city in general.
