The Common Flux


An Atlas of Urban Futures

The Common Flux


An Atlas of Urban Futures
Ecosystems to transfer another type of knowledge, to provoke dialogues and reflections towards sustainable futures.
File under
Type of project
  • Systemic changes

We live on a depleted Earth, a damaged planet, a broken world.  Inhabitants need new ecosystems to (un)learn again about cities and replace functionalist current hierarchies of construction.

¿What is the point of knowing when we do not know how to live?

Atlas is a collection of new narratives, dialogues and perspectives to transfer another type of knowledge, to provoke dialogues and reflections encouraging a sensitive relationship towards urban surroundings to ensure sustainable futures. 

Combining questions of spatial practices, pedagogy and politics, Atlas becomes a catalyst for experimentation and participation, shaping possible futures that do not yet have any form or name. Atlas' ecosystems are based on theoretical constructions to dismantle the hidden realities in order to promote critical awareness, to contribute changing attitudes as well as practices, and to develop an ethical and political commitment.
