Description: In winter 2006, under the aegis of philosopher Wolfgang Scheppe, a collective of students from the IUAV University in Venice fanned out to subject their city to a process of forensic structural mapping. Out of this field work, conducted in the Situationist tradition, there developed a three-year urban project that produced an enormous archive comprising tens of thousands of photographs, case studies, movement profiles, and statistic data. Exhibition: Bevilacqua La Masa, Venice, October 8 - December 8, 2009.
Notes: "This book was published in conjunction with the exhibition Migropolis, Venice / Atlas of a Global Situation held at the Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa, Venice, San Marco, from October 8 to December 6, 2009"--P. 1338.
