Eidolons
Let's assume that technology does spawn “cities that grows like snowflakes overnight”; we ought to consider that when these urbanities-to-satisfy-our-every-need is implemented in our current stratified society they will freeze into ice castles preventing any social mobility and nomadic subjectivity. The actors in the interactions initiating these responses become the new architects; these interactions need to be hacked to prevent the crystallization of culture. Varanasi is as stratified as a fever dream and as quantifiable as a glitch; a snowflake-city in this context responding to an anti-tinder date generates a parametrical snow crash of contradictory architecture actualizing the total plurality of its conflictual sociocultural differences.
Anti-tinder dates in the ancient ruin. The ruin browses for irrational/pataphysical sociotechnical connections to group different identities in conflictual situations, these situations spawn contradictory architectural responses manifested in new unpredictable eidolons.
Beyond thy lectures learn’d professor, Beyond thy telescope or spectroscope observer keen, beyond all mathematics, Beyond the doctor’s surgery, anatomy, beyond the chemist with his chemistry, The entities of entities, eidolons.
Walt Whitman, Eidolons
This is essentially an inhabitable wrecking ball?
