Here’s an interesting vision of how future architecture transforms society into a chlorophyl-based system. My only complaint is that in the fictional narrative (it’s presented as a documentary from the future) a single architect takes credit for the transformative idea. To me this violates the principle of social change, which is more based on emergent, distributed knowledge that is developed collectively. It’s time for people to get over the hero trope. Neo is not coming to save the world. Still, I like speculative architecture because it stimulates future research and ideas, and this is certainly an intriguing proposition.
