Planet After Festival

Date: 2021Type: Digital

Party's over. Or is it?


In the early 70s, visionary Italian architect Ettore Sottsass made a series of drawings entitled the Planet as Festival. He imagined the physical structures of a post-work world: personal life-pods, megastructures of dance, arenas of art and music, sensual temples.

Planet After Festival imagines the collapse of Sottsass' dream. Among the ruins, new, hyper-local societies emerge, salvaging wreckage, repurposing materials, hacking machinery. An abandoned stadium becomes an ad-hoc solar village.
