EveryVille is not an urban organism: it embodies, instead, the worst kind of social interaction
possible. EV therefore describes a living condition opposed to the cities that indeed we wish to inhabit; and, from this point of view, it also expresses the banality of the “Italian brainframe” as depending upon the social and ethnographic stratification currently occurring in the country. EV in fact mirrors the well-torn prejudices haunting the idea of social success, personal taste and individual gender. To the degree that, in EV, Neapolitan cheaters cheat, gypsies steal and Romanians rape women; Nigerian and Romanian prostitutes, on the other hand, wait for their clients over heaps of garbage. |
