The past and the future meet in a timeless space, as the web is getting crowded with “Retro Futurist” communities who dig new scenarios from unbounded Eras.
The relationship between our digital and urban spaces is osmotic as fractal realities, and everything seems possible in our parallel worlds. Virtual identities are often a reflection of aspirational lives rather than reality, and online communities and video games are becoming inspirational places.
A utopia is forming, seeking a drastic change that could impact our present and future. Sophistication is subtile, and innovation may be invisible to the common eye but revolutionary in the core, in the technology of its construction.
The fascination for “far away” places, geographical or metaphysical, is stronger than ever. Browsing is not just an activity rather a thinking mode. A re-discovery of local folklore, an appreciation of the hand-made, artisanal, recycled and re-used is not only ethical but inspirational and poetic.
