This is my project for the course 'Conceptual Design of the City: Void-Landscape-Archive' in the first semester of the postgraduate program 'Architectural Design-Space-Culture'.
I tried to conceive a system of tracing the layers of movements in three important eras of the Athens Agora through typologies of motions according to the circulation in the public space and the relationship between empty and built space. The traces of the trajectories of motion in the public space accumulate a sense of absence of the actions taking place in the public space and of the corporality which gained a spatial being and dense symbolisms and meanings.
Virtual Flaneur
I am trying to place the contemporary flaneur in a virtual world by developing a sort of game/virtual environment where one can catch a glimpse of how the experience of urban space was formed in each era and how the different circulations were structured as well as virtually interact with this mental motion landscape. My goal is a reconstruction of the archaeological site through the visualisation of these important movements which used to exist as of utmost importance for the everyday life. In these movements the basic one articulating the rest is that of the road of Panathinaia where in ancient times the procession for godess Athena took place.
