Manifesto - Ioana Cristiana Radut

We fail to see sometimes the freedom we posses now due to evolution.

 Architecture can transcend function and therefore now we tried to build a limitless city. In our project we developed a few constrains and enough rules to keep this city from falling apart. The people will be the order in the chaos, the yang within the yin. I believe in educating human kind about the power and responsibility of freedom. In this project we offered to the inhabitants of the city the possibility to speak however they want, pray however they want, think however they want, live however they want. All of that for a limited time of course, because this type of architecture is intended to be used as an experiment.

Architecture should work with the people's preconceptions and imaginary limits. It could be used to make people understand themselves better, because the only way of understanding the world is through understanding yourself. People carry in them the image of the universe, like in the Menger Sponge, the universe's mechanisms are in us at a different scale. The No-Ego City brings forward these mechanisms but at city scale. It enables it's users to have total control. People will no more build out of necessity, but out of freedom.
