EDITO 

 

 

The Earth in Stone

 

Concrete reason… Reason logic… The cogwheels of nature… Functional, working city… Alone in  the crowd… Mad about its materials… African cities, new cities… Founding the modern city… Royal desire… †he wind of urban heresy…

 

Questioning paradise… The bronze of ordered disorder… Alpha's squares… Movement… Death does not exist… Same difference… The last vestige or promises… The losing numbers… Open house… Deconstructed society… New territorial states… The new territories… Cosmopolitan…

 

There is no « other » who is not a part of one's self, there is no self without others. Another way of forgetting one's solitude.
