NO - ego - CITY

The No-ego city presented here has nor a place nor a time. This proposal was intended to help with the quality of life of all of the inhabitants of each inhabitant. Each inhabitant of the city would receive freedom to move around the city and a power to influence the city.

The main constructive elements are: MODULES, WATER, GRID and 'INVISIBLE FACTORS' as pandemic and virus thing. The No-ego city consists of a cluster of cubic modules that float, sink and connect to each other in the water, while everything is being kept together on a grid.

New principles of living of No ego city: freedom of choice, movement in all directions, poetic complexity of language, non-linear time flow, unified and strong communities, shared spaces.
This gives endless possibilities, we say the city “restarts” with every change.
Everything depends on how inhabitants act in it, they choose how they create their paths through it, they decide when and how to move their lives underwater, how much time they spend there. The goal will have to be to reduce the ego of the inhabitant to pure human behaviour.

External factors that influence the changes of the city are the increase of temperature will make it difficult to stay above the water, as with higher temperature and different impurities the surface tension of water will break, so the city will be forced to sink down and continue it’s functionality under the water, so if the city unpredictably sinks that will mean we need to rethink the ecological behaviour of the inhabitants.

People have built societies and cities out of necessity for most of their existence, now they will build it out of freedom.
