More or less on Aurora and Bucharest, on factories and blocks and on art as a sophisticated riddle.

One room on Plantelor Street. After 20 minutes of talk with Cristi, am so absorbed that I almost forget we are recording it. We talk about film and architecture, what is beyond definitions. He speaks about the cinema beyond the clichés of a dictionary, while I talk about the unspoken side of architecture, the void.

The idea of the competition has come up after the opening in 2010 of the site for the underground parking lot in the University Square in the center of the Romanian capital.

Post de: Constantin GoageaText: Constantin GoageaThe crew is ready to take off, the people have fastened their belts in their seats (or in a comfortable coach or against our school’s famous radiators) and are ready to read zeppelin. Dear readers, we should tell you that from among thousands charming stories the name under which our journal has been picked to go on signifies the capacity to soar, to dare high, and to meditate. We have found zeppelins and architectures in the Instant City project by Archigram, in the Schuiten and Peeters’ cartoons, in old movies, fabulous drawings and in a multitude of other situations. We fell in love with the metaphor, poetry built in the sound of it, with the idea of technologyoptimistic associations it urges, and with the privileged perspective on the city, you have, from this dirigible. Its bountiful imagery and retro futuristic content feeds us all and perfectly reflects the personal style of the crew in the nacelle, and as you might have noticed it for three years now it is a powerful engine of cultural life.- Recommend on FacebookTweet about it
