Tender Monsters : A Bestiary of Non-Euclidean Futures Mangahis, Jedrik

Abstract

This thesis investigates topologies of dreaming and desire, and how architectural production conspires with cultural landscapes to inflect predominant myths of futurity. The project imagines how an ecology of public dream spaces might disrupt technocratic, accelerationist utopias and steer the act of futuring towards the messy, temporal, and unpredictable.
