Workshop by Studio FM Milan
An intensive one-day workshop dedicated to the radical observation of the city and the construction of a collective urban archive.Each group receives exactly 100 meters of a street in Milan. Nothingelse.The task is to explore and document them in an almost obsessive way, looking within a seemingly ordinary fragment for its own key to reading and visual storytelling.Every detail can become narrative matter: every screw, every writing, every number, every surface, every shadow, every sign, every crack, every trace, every imperfection.The goal is to build a visual alphabet of one street 100 meters at a time, recognizing, selecting and relating the elements encountered, transforming what normally goes unnoticed into a system of signs capable of telling the story of a place. The morning is dedicated to field research: observation, collection, photography, measurement, cataloguing and interpretation.In the afternoon, at Studio FM, the collected material is transformed through graphic experimentation into an editorial artifact.Each group will thus build its own page, sequence or micro-publication. Individually, each project tells 100 meters; together, all the artifacts make up a collective book A research and design exercise that starts from a minimum portion of space to arrive at a larger question: how can you tell a city through its details? The number of participants is limited. How to register for the workshop will be communicated soon.Cost: € 20
