Abstract

In this extended meditation, I want to build on a key insight from my provocations around the lopsided city: that for all of its forward momentum, the lopsided city remains prone to falling over, of over-reach. This connects to an older interest in faded grandeur, entropy, cracks in the city, and ruins, while being careful to avoid wallowing in purely dystopian representations.
