“With different kinds of architectures
Residential quarters, offices, classrooms, cinemas, schools, hospitals, shopping malls, factories, museums, court houses
These architectural structures form the experiences of our lives
And these experiences form our memories
A city is an organism that keeps on changing
Cities are continuously changing, and no city remains forever the same
What remains unchanged is that the cities keep changing
A city is a place that produces memories and feelings
A city is a system built up by architecture
Architecture is like any other living thing, with a beginning, an aging process, and an end
The spaces in architecture are created by materials and substances
The spaces of concrete structures and the spaces of wooden structures have different textures
Memories are constructed by spatial textures in a city full of big roads and small alleys…”

 

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

A revisit of 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… Architecture 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
