***
[exploring alternative models of probable futures; plotting consistent fictions, designing para-consistent realities; framing the “real” beyond what is given in a “reality”, to construct a new real-reality; constructing visions of/and unknown politics; envisioning a non-capital driven, environmental ethics; reimagining what “environment” means; crafting new conceptual structures for fusing spatial and political agency; studying resilient models of occupation; committing to planetary and post-planetary design; designing speculative strategies; swinging from Geo-politics (material at core) to Cosmo-politics (conceptual at core); mapping the invisible; writing the concept; tracing the latent space beyond reality (real);de_signing the intransigent sign*

***
What is “territory”? Conceptual machines, strategies and politics; whence one can build, reiteratively one’s own “concept of matter”.

***
What is an “Idea”? Plotting the function of a “problem”.

***
“What” is a “designer”? a strategist, an inventor that is knotted between efficiency and inefficiency, an engineer of complexity a weaver of multi-linearities, a qualifier and not only a quantifier, an explorer by default and a navigator by necessity. To design is to invent diagrammatic practices that understand, by modeling, the non-linear surfaces of any “given” system and its layers of complexity.

CHINA NEPAL SOUTH CHINA SEA CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER “[Fiction] means far more than the constructing of an imaginary world, and even far more than its Aristetolian sense as an ‘arrangement of actions.’... fiction is a way of changing existing modes of sensory presentations and forms of enunciation[…] of building new relationships between reality and appearance” [MORE TEXTS] Jaques Rancière, “Dissensus: On Politics and Aesthetics”, p.149
