This application is a key component of a museum installation exploring Aldo Rossi, Eraldo Consolascio, Bruno Reichlin, and Fabio Reinhart's The Analogous City, a seminal artwork from the 1976 Venice Biennale of Architecture. Utilizing augmented reality, the application enhances a reproduction of The Analogous City (available at http://archizoom.epfl.ch), overlaying multiple interactive layers of contextual references onto the artwork itself.

Essential for engaging with the digital installation at the "Aldo Rossi - The Window of the Poet, Prints 1973-1997" exhibition at the Bonnefanten Museum (Maastricht), Archizoom EPFL (Lausanne), and GAMeC (Bergamo), this application provides a unique interactive experience.

Purchasing the Archizoom-published map reproduction of The Analogous City allows you to recreate this museum installation experience anytime, anywhere. The printed map includes texts by Aldo Rossi, Fabio Reinhart, and Dario Rodighiero.

Conceived as a genuine urban project, The Analogous City (La Città Analoga) incorporates diverse elements, including Giovanni Battista Caporali's drawing of Vitruvius' city (1536), Galileo Galilei's Pleiades Constellation drawing (1610), Tanzio da Varallo's painting David and Goliath (ca 1625), Francesco Borromini's plan of San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane (1638-1641), the Dufour topographic map (1864), Le Corbusier's plan for the Notre Dame du Haut chapel (1954), and various architectural projects by Aldo Rossi and his collaborators.

As Aldo Rossi himself described in Lotus International No. 13 (1976): “Between past and present, reality and imagination, the analogous city is perhaps simply the city to be designed day by day, tackling problems and overcoming them, with a reasonable certainty that things will ultimately be better.”
