Description
Platform Austria, ddresses the fundamental yet often overlooked impact of digital technology platforms on contemporary architecture and urban development. It provides a forum for dozens of contributors from around the world to analyse the emerging typologies of platform urbanism by way of written texts, drawings, photographs, videos, and live debates. By turning the pavilion itself into a platform, the exhibition seeks to challenge the global monopoly exercised by platform enterprises over the imagination of our future habitats. Together, participants and visitors will give voice to new collective demands for a future architecture that WE LIKE.
