The Selfish City_under construction










As society become more and more complex, people tend to stay underneath their settlement and hide their feelings. Hikikomori is a term used for people who refuse to leave their house, and isolate themselves from society in their homes. When the isolation between individuals and society reach in an extreme level, the selfishness of society starts visualizing, and infrastructures of the city itself start acting selfish.

In the selfish city, each building starts shaping/taking/grouping its own territory and there is no physical communication each other. However, the information distributed from the center and it is subconsciously connected. It grows like medieval cities, is self-growing, and organizes by themselves.

Since the selfish city is constructed on the mobius strip, there is no upside and downside. Each cell has a surrogate and these two pairs are interacting each other and share information.

1. Each cell tries to act for its own good.

2. Every cell is connected and affecting each other

3. But, in the end, entire system organizes by themselves.
