  • Invisible City focuses on similarities between city and web, the places where human interactions happen. In the information technology era, urban infrastructures and server answer to the same need to communicate and exchange aspects of contemporary life. We spend in our city the same amount of time we spend on the internet. Cutting distance between speakers, instant communication and online communities make the web the perfect copy of our cities. Server and urban intrastructures, elements usually perceived as distant are here coupled together linked with common viasual elements. This photographic similitude allude to a real and substantial parallelism. Invisible City does not aim at a final and defined theory. If it’s true that photographs come to life through the perception of the observer, here we have all the compulsory elements to consider the way how communication via internet has completely changed our way of living.
