Whether under the force of transnational politics, global economies, new working conditions, or urban social movements, networks have become the most powerful configuration for thinking about the organisation of our world. Networks have changed cultural interaction and forms of coexistence as much as the way we produce and experience spaces. At the presentation of the book the two editors and guest speakers discuss a recently developed intellectual architecture practise that generates interventions, experiments and laboratory-like situations in the pursuit of political and social issues
