Hypertelia by Elrem

"Maybe just a supernova at the highest point of energy emission – before the final implosion into an unlimited gravitational mass – architecture represents the most dazzling, and for this reason almost invisible body of evidence left by the technological society in its attempt to get rid of reality. This exquisite corpse – sort of Dadaist, accidental recombination – succeeded the dismemberment, lyofilization and centrifugation of culture, this singular object that we conventionally define as architecture: is "the sweet scent of decomposition" (Zygmunt Bauman) starting to affect it yet? Or, following the destiny of all of the discourses and meta discourses of our era – art, advertising, politics, philosophy, in other words, the redundant, germless and sanitized counterfeit of social meaning and culture played and showed in controlled social areas – has it already been turned into the embalmed ghost of its own reflection?"
