POST DISASTER is a critic learning platform on the condition of the mediterranean scenario. It aims to shed light on the role of marginal territories – on a global scale – within production systems and capital flows. It invites scholars, designers, thinkers and artists to contribute to a collective investigation through the lens of Taranto, an industrial city that symbolises the disparities inherent with the western contemporary world. It generates a multidisciplinary exchange by chasing a complexity of visions that goes beyond the disciplinary boundaries.
POST DISASTER ROOFTOPS are collective performances aiming to de-centralize the production and sharing of knowledge, which is usually absorbed by the territories that benefit economic and cultural advantages. They take place on the city roofs, understood as non-conventional spaces that are free from the main hegemonic forms of organisation of life and capital. Although they are urban spaces, the rooftops are not subject to the traditional spatial regulations, allowing a wide freedom of action.
In the context of POST DISASTER ROOFTOPS EP02 – A NEW ABNORMAL, studioconcreto curated a philosophical lecture by Sergio Solombrino: Un-inhabiting the world. From Heidegger’s poetic dwelling to Deleuze’s desert islands.
Using as a starting point a critique of the crisis of the modern world dominated by technology, Heidegger gives to poetry the task of researching the essence of inhabiting the world. The ontological reflection by Heidegger will be explored and deconstructed, in order to reach its seeming opposite, thanks to the short essay in which Deleuze analyses the primary meaning of the desert island as an opportunity of rebirth and second origin.
