Kilo Dialogues: A Quantum City
PUBLISHED August 4th, 2015 07:58 am | UPDATED May 9th, 2018 03:13 am
We know the specific strengths of various cities, are aware of their ranking, are able to discuss their density and growth. But what do all cities have in common, what do we know about the ‘lowest common denominator’? The ‘city as a species’, the ‘primal genetic material of the city’: this is the subject of ‘A Quantum City’.
Be ready for a multi-layered event: during the night the authors will present ‘A Quantum City’, followed by a discussion, then the audience will be invited to experience, explore, dive into it, with a multi media installation.
