Objects' identity - Identity object | |||||
Everyville‘s IDENTITY is created as an OBJECT, which:
1. should be done by COMMUNITY. Only the common participation can create related memories and establish original identification. 2. should be made of OBJECTS which collect up DIFFERENT MEMORIES. 3. will be the IMAGINARY PLACE, where everyone can free their imagination related with personal memories. 4. should be ETERNAL process. "<...> Several times it decayed, then burgeoned again, always keeping the first [THE CITY] as an unparalled model of every splendor, compared to which the city's recent state can only arouse more sighs at every fading of the stars... In its centuries of decadence, emptied by plagues, it height reduced by collapsing beams and cornices... <...> They grabbed everything that could be taken from where it was and put it in another place to serve a different use... Put together with odd bits of the useless [THE CITY], a survivors' [THE CITY] was taking shape“ [Italo Calvino, Invisible Cities, p. 106] |
