Un viaggio tra teoria urbana, deriva psicogeografica e immaginari digitali con Lorenzo Tripodi, urbanista, filmmaker e attivista. Un’occasione per esplorare — anche fisicamente — la città contemporanea, tra Santa Marta, Casette alla Giudecca e SALE Docks.
On May 26-28, we will be getting to Cecco Rivolta with many contributions to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the student squat that has been transformed into atypical experience of social housing self-regeneration by its inhabitants. Laura Colini will participate in a site visit and panel discussion about housing issues; CartografiaResistente will conduct an urban derive and present the first results of the cycle of laboratories reviving the memory of the insurgent city; and Lorenzo Tripodi will present his book Urbiquità alongside Tiziano Bonini and the Ippolita collective in a discussion about the role of algorithms in shaping our society.
In Naples, from 22 to 24 May, the second edition of the National Assembly of the Social Forum dell’Abitare will be held, an important annual moment of confrontation and collective planning on the themes of the right to live and housing, urban policies and social and environmental justice.
In February 2025 we began the first round of workshops promoted by the OASIS project to support the participatory design of 13 cultural centres and their artist residence programs. Tesserae is facilitating the exploration of the territories surrounding the centres, applying the urban reconnaissance methodology to the aim of fostering an holistic understanding of the neighbourhoods and the impacts that the project can bring on them.
CartografiaResistente, a bottom-up critical geography laboratory we contributed to animate twenty years ago, is being reactivated in conjunction with the adventures of the Biomechanical Venus. The sculpture is a traveling emblem of social struggles in Florence, recently landed at the GKN factory, which is self-managed by its workers in struggle.
The book on planetary urbanisation and cinematic urbanism by Lorenzo Tripodi published by AgenziaX Is now out in the bookshops!

We are delighted to finally unveil our new online interface! We’ve been quietly working on reorganising our website in recent months, highlighting its role as an archive of what we produce rather than a promotional tool.
On Wednesday 11th December Laura Colini and Lorenzo Tripodi will take part as discussants to a one-day symposium celebrating the work and books of renowned Swiss geographer Christian Schmid.
