Three notions about the city as the other: altopia, accidental city and urban vernacular
This article presents a discussion from a physical-spatial perspective about the contemporary city as an other condition, based on three images and their correlation with three notions previously researched by the author. First, the notion of altopia (1999-2010), which describes the other places as...

oai:ojs.revista180.cl:article-5172018-12-18T19:12:46Z Three notions about the city as the other: altopia, accidental city and urban vernacular Tres nociones acerca de la ciudad como lo otro: altopía, ciudad accidental y vernáculo urbano Vielma Cabruja, Jose Ignacio altopia; accidental city; city as other; contemporary city; urban vernacular arquitectura; urbanismo; crítica urbana altopía, ciudad accidental; ciudad contemporánea; ciudad otra; vernáculo urbano This article presents a discussion from a physical-spatial perspective about the contemporary city as an other condition, based on three images and their correlation with three notions previously researched by the author. First, the notion of altopia (1999-2010), which describes the other places as a physical and conceptual waste of current urban development. Second, accidental city (2009), which accounts for the growing distance between urban projects and the resulting experience within the instrumentality of the present. Last, the urban vernacular (2017), which defines the solutions which people use to deal with everyday problems, establishing new traditions and social relations very characteristic of the urban space. Methodologically, the research is a descriptive analysis of the physical-spatial record, from which the discussion starts based on the experience present in the photographs, and in relation to classical and contemporary authors. It is concluded that the three revised notions imply different scales and levels of depth on the city as an other experience, being of interest the participatory role of the people in the determination of this otherness, as it ends up achieving in the notion of urban vernacular. Se presenta una discusión argumentada acerca de la condición otra de la ciudad contemporánea desde una perspectiva físico-espacial. Esto a partir de tres imágenes correlacionadas con tres nociones desarrolladas previamente por el autor. Primero, altopía (1999-2010), que describe los otros lugares como un residuo físico y conceptual del desarrollo urbano actual. Luego, ciudad accidental (2009), que da cuenta de la distancia creciente entre los proyectos urbanos y la experiencia resultante en el marco de la instrumentalidad urbana actual. Por último, vernáculo urbano (2017), que describe las soluciones con las cuales las personas atienden sus problemas, y establecen nuevas tradiciones y relaciones sociales características del espacio urbano. Metodológicamente, se propone como un análisis descriptivo del registro físico-espacial, por lo que la discusión parte de la experiencia presente en las fotografías, y en relación con autores clásicos y contemporáneos. Se determina que las tres nociones revisadas implican distintas escalas y niveles de profundización en la experiencia urbana comprendida como experiencia otra, resultando de interés el rol participativo de las personas en la determinación de esta experiencia de la alteridad, como se termina registrando en la noción de vernáculo urbano.

This article presents a discussion from a physical-spatial perspective about the contemporary city as an other condition, based on three images and their correlation with three notions previously researched by the author. First, the notion of altopia (1999-2010), which describes the other places as a physical and conceptual waste of current urban development. Second, accidental city (2009), which accounts for the growing distance between urban projects and the resulting experience within the instrumentality of the present. Last, the urban vernacular (2017), which defines the solutions which people use to deal with everyday problems, establishing new traditions and social relations very characteristic of the urban space. Methodologically, the research is a descriptive analysis of the physical-spatial record, from which the discussion starts based on the experience present in the photographs, and in relation to classical and contemporary authors. It is concluded that the three revised notions imply different scales and levels of depth on the city as an other experience, being of interest the participatory role of the people in the determination of this otherness, as it ends up achieving in the notion of urban vernacular. |
