“While the Modern Movement was obsessed by the problem of rationalising urban form, today it is precisely its labyrinthine, dynamic and chaotic nature that is most fascinating: the constant movement of persons, things, information and continuous changes in balances and configurations through the superimposition of new layers, new stages and new uses of space. One of the most surprising aspects of our modern world is that space, rather than being inhabited, seems to exist to be travelled through. Rather than establishing roots, society or societies are broken up, mixed, crossed and uprooted.� Maria Luisa Palumbo, New Wombes, Electronic Bodies and Architectural Disorders
