urban surrealism “What induces this public to collectively undergo this surrealistic experience? Its yardstick is no longer pre-programmed recreational facilities but anarchy, exploration, self expression. It is capable of locating and occupying its own spots and investing them with its own meaning.” […] Onedimensional cities ignore “the intelligence of the inquiring urbanite. This demands a reaction, an ultimate manifesto; the call for an uprising of street furniture, for anarchistic street signage, and for surrealistic and subversive public spaces.”
