Abstract
The ‘symbiotic field’ is the space in which natural and artificial systems intersect, producing the multilayer construct of the landscape where we live. This book organizes a compared anatomy of design cases by François Roche, Camille Lacadée, new-territories, Antonino Di Raimo, Kongjian Yu, Turenscape, Perry Kulper, José Luis Vallejo, Ecosistema Urbano, Besnik Aliaj, Mason White, Lateral Office, Alessandro Scandurra, SSA, accompanied by unpublished essays from the authors. Through macro-ecologies of territorial scale and micro-ecologies within the city space, this group of internationally renowned contributors cross the body of their work tracing a bundle of feebler or bolder paths in the novel geography of the expanded field of landscape. The resulting multi-perspectival observation, combining aggregates of artificial and living systems, psychological and physical spaces, and machinic and cultural landscapes, is mounted into an alternative landscape construct of both ‘metabolist’ and ‘territorialist’ characters. This book composes a momentary photograph of our present relationship to nature.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
