City of the (Re)Oriented




Efter min mening et smukt smukt værk fra de danske kunstnere/arkitekter Ben&Sebastian...Selv siger de:
The 'map' has long been useless in a city whose streets are continually reshaped by their walkers, vendors, sponsors, hobby street artists and salvation-sellers. In this anthill of possibilities only the most elastic orientation software can direct the city's inhabitant through its myriad of shifting, tangled streets.
As more private dwellings of the city connect to this mobile space, more public parks, institution and cinemas protect themselves from mobile invasion.
Two interdependent territories grow back to back, simultaneously:
The first, a mobile, shifting space is allowed and continually reshaped by the new technologies. A space intent on becoming more stimulating, responsive and distracting.
In the shadows of the mobile territory, grow the immobile spaces. They become ever more out-of-reception and are intent on appealing to the focused eye.
