Application Description

This application is a key component of a museum installation centered on Aldo Rossi, Eraldo Consolascio, Bruno Reichlin, and Fabio Reinhart's The Analogous City, a seminal artwork from the 1976 Venice Biennale of Architecture. Utilizing augmented reality, the application enhances a reproduction of The Analogous City—available at http://archizoom.epfl.ch—by overlaying multiple interactive layers of references onto the artwork itself.

Essential for fully experiencing the digital installation, this application is used in the exhibition "Aldo Rossi - The window of the poet, Prints 1973-1997" at the Bonnefanten Museum in Maastricht, Archizoom EPFL in Lausanne, and GAMeC in Bergamo.

Purchasing the Archizoom-published map reproduction of The Analogous City allows you to recreate the museum installation's interactive experience anytime, anywhere. This printed map includes texts by Aldo Rossi, Fabio Reinhart, and Dario Rodighiero.

Conceived as a genuine urban design project, The Analogous City (La Città Analoga) incorporates diverse elements, including Giovanni Battista Caporali's drawing of Vitruvius' city (1536), Galileo Galilei's drawing of the Pleiades Constellation (1610), Tanzio da Varallo's painting David and Goliath (ca. 1625), Francesco Borromini's plan of San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane (1638-1641), the Dufour topographic map (1864), Le Corbusier's plan for the chapel of Notre Dame du Haut (1954), and various architectural projects by Aldo Rossi and his collaborators.

As Aldo Rossi himself described in Lotus International #13 (1976): “Between past and present, reality and imagination, the analogous city is perhaps simply the city to be designed day by day, tackling problems and overcoming them, with a reasonable certainty that things will ultimately be better.”
