“One cannot make architecture without studying the condition of life in the city.” Aldo Rossi
One can say that the city itself is the collective memory of its people
And like memory it is associated with objects and places.
The city is the locus of this collective memory
Let’s the seminal architecture theory of Italian architect Aldo Rossi from the 20th century
What's the difference between knowing a person and knowing a city?
Cityscape... Experiences and memories…
Technology and technique… Building and bamboo scaffolding…
Experimental theatre… Live music and sound experiment…
A city is an organism that keeps on changing
Cities are continuously changing and no city remains the same forever
What remains unchanged is that the cities keep on changing
