Resuming Cybernetic habitats this part is looking into the work of Ugo La Pietra and one of the visionaries who always inspire me. La Pietra worked on the concept of the Casa Telematica.
This house here is a place of gathering, processing and distributing information from the public to the private realm and likewise. It seems quite normal now but 40 years ago it was still something too fictional and impractical.
Pre-internet situation, this project is one of the earliest in this example to expand the physical perception of the body and of the domestic cell to the awareness of the influences on behaviour and the mental suffering of the individual produced by the urban fabric.
