The city as an open book
Connection and community culture in a diffuse city
Cities are open books. Each district is a chapter and a different story. You can read any of them from the book. However if you have any favourite ones, you would probably never open the others. The ones that are never opened will never be read, and since they are never being read, they won’t be opened. Your role as the reader , as an inhabitant is undeniable. You need to read your own
chapters, however if you open the ones that you have never taken a look before, you might read stories that were hidden for a long time. After you, other people will read them, and others after them. In the end, you will have amazing and connected stories and the book, your city, will finally be read from beginning to end. It will tell its stories.
