Diagrams, transpositions, and space: alternatives for contemporary urban complexity. Credits: Paco Editorial
Immaterial flows characterize the urban condition in the era of globalized information, intensifying its existing complexity. Temptations to return to the past, or a penchant for the radical or purely virtual, accompany the uncertainty of a landscape undergoing profound social transformations. To intervene in a perceptible way, a new cohesion is required, provided by a diagrammatic unfolding of the urban condition and a move beyond form-based urban readings. This new arrangement aims to reveal more than the simple sum of its parts.
