They investigate the status of human habitats, acting within a hybrid of architecture, design and scenography. The founders are Stefano Colombo (1989) Eugenio Cosentino (1989), Luca Marullo (1989). Parasite 2.0 was founded in 2010 as an independent research unit, a space of expression parallel to the academic environment. The show will start with a performance in which the public will be invited to live and experience the architecture itself. The project includes a series of objects and possible architectures inspired by what artists defined as “architecture novel” about a fictive group of individuals enmeshed in a conspiracy to take over the main institution controlling their city. Its title “Speaking architecture” derives from a term coined by Claude Nicolas Ledoux to describe structures that explain their own function or identity. “Architecture parlante” concerns an artifact’s potential to tell stories and to envision new paths for collective living.
