Description

"In this pamphlet, architect Usman Haque and media theorist Matthew Fuller look beyond established precepts and explore an alternate technology of space making derived from the politics of "code" itself. In a conversation of sorts between the protocols of Free, Libre, Open Source Software (FLOSS) licenses and those of spatial construction (building codes, zoning ordinances), the authors attempt to map out a quasi-license by which the architecture of the city might be remade in the manner of FLOSS software, and suggest a series of 76 constraints by which this license might be manifest in the open, collaborative production of urban space."--Publisher's Web site.
