The rhetoric of the futureIndustry complex
In any-space-whatever
an infinite potential develops
in an objectively measurable way
in a time always yet to come

Spheres and spacesHybrid Publics
Public life pretends careful attention to geographical considerations and to the virtues of particularity.

The polis as actionSpace of appearance
The space where I appear to others as others appear to me.
[…]
Wherever men are together in the manner of speech and action.
Hannah Arendt
![Page 26: Post optimal cities, Paolo Patelli](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a692171a28ab564d8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Engagement and actionPublic matters
The type of political life described by Arendt is essential for the production of a public sphere, where citizens can confer about matters of general interest, including the management of civic resources.

A permanent place for conflictThe city
In the city, confrontation and disagreement are continuously ongoing. Cities live in a condition of contestation and dissensus, that is fundamental to democracy, rather than in one of consensus and rationality.
![Page 30: Post optimal cities, Paolo Patelli](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a692171a28ab564d8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Design as AgonismThe political
“Adversarial design” uses the means and forms of design to challenge beliefs, values, and what is taken to be fact.
Carl DiSalvo
![Page 31: Post optimal cities, Paolo Patelli](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a692171a28ab564d8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Is it possible to imagine contemporary designed (connected) things that do the work of agonism in the city?
![Page 32: Post optimal cities, Paolo Patelli](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a692171a28ab564d8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Can we build typologies to ask questions and raise issues in society and culture?
![Page 33: Post optimal cities, Paolo Patelli](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a692171a28ab564d8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
How can we imagine an urban political space that considers the multiple “spaces of appearance” of the contemporary urban experience?
![Page 34: Post optimal cities, Paolo Patelli](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a692171a28ab564d8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Can we imagine new “typologies of situated interactions”?

Smart CitiesPost—Optimal
A new conceptual territory on which to explore networked environments as post-optimal “turns the attention away from the familiar attempt to achieve optimum performance levels and towards more fundamental (philosophical, social, aesthetical) issues”.
