Tap your fingers, move them on the screen, tap patterns and massive sweeps: you will see the screen furiously animating with colour and forms, and the sounds will shape accordingly, bringing you to far away places, from the depths of industrial nightmares, to the weird noises of outer space.
Fully multitouch enabled. works beautifully on both iPhone and iPad.
l’Atlante è un sistema aperto che raccoglie visioni sulla città. Progetti, azioni, pubblicazioni, siti web, teorie. Tutto ciò può essere incluso nell’atlante per creare uno spazio di informazione condivisa.
L’Atlante vive a cavallo dello spazio digitale e di quello fisico.
Atlante delle visioni
Sul web, un sistema aperto permette di inserire le proprie visioni e di consultare quelle presenti sul territorio, nel tempo e nello spazio semantico delle tematiche.
Nello spazio fisico l’Atlante si manifesta come una grande installazione pensata per essere inserita nello spazio pubblico. Qui le persone possono consultare l’Atlante sia osservandone le grandi rappresentazioni infoestetiche, sia utilizzando degli schermi multitouch che permettono di interagire direttamente con la superficie proiettiva cercando le informazioni secondo la navigazione per categorie e tag.
Le mura degli spazi pubblici si animano, comunicando la stratificazione di molteplici punti di vista, idee, progettualità, eventi e voci che definiscono la vita della città, le sue emozioni, i suoi desideri.
L’Atlante è un progetto aperto, istanziato per la prima volta per la città di Roma, dove è nato sotto la cura di Paolo Valente e commissionato dall’Ordine degli Architetti per la Festa dell’Architettura del 2010 (Index Urbis http://www.indexurbis.it/ ) con il nome di Atlante di Roma, con la fondamentale collaborazione dell’Assessorato alla Comunicazione e alle Politiche Culturali del Comune di Roma.
Il progetto si fonda sulla creazione di un complesso network di istituzioni, professionisti, accademici, e di soggetti che esprimono o raccontano nel loro operare quotidiano le visioni sulla vita e sulle possibili evoluzioni delle città, delle relazioni e interazioni tra i loro abitanti, dell’evoluzione degli spazi pubblici, dell’informazione e dell’interazione sociale.
L’esperienza si estenderà, nei prossimi mesi, ad altre città sia in Italia che nel resto del mondo.

The Atlas is an open system gathering visions on the city. Projects, actions, publications, web sites, theories. Everything can be included in the atlas to create a shared information space.
The Atlas lives across digital and physical spaces.
On the web, an open system is used to add visions and to access the ones that are already present through territory, time and the semantic space.
In the physical space, the Atlas is a large scale installation designed for public spaces. Here people can access the shared information either visually, by observing the 35 meter wide information aesthetics, or they can directly interact with information by using multitouch screens allowing direct connection to the projected surface, browsing information through categories, territories and times.
The walls of the public spaces animate themselves, communicating the stratification of the multiple points of view, ideas, projects, events and voices that define the life of the city, its emotions, its desires and strategies.
The Atlas is an open project, instantiated for the first time in the city of Rome, where it has been curated by Paolo Valente and commissioned by the Order of the Architects for the Festa dell’Architettura 2010 ( Index Urbis http://www.indexurbis.it/ ) with the name “Atlante di Roma”, with the fundamental collaboration of the Council for Communication and Cultural Policies of the City of Rome.
The project is based on the creation of a complex network of institutions, professionals, academics and other subjects expressing or telling the visions on the life and on the possible evolutions of the city, of the relations and interactions among its citizens, of public spaces, of information and social interaction.
The experience will be replicated, during the next months, in other cities both in Italy and in the rest of the world.

The interactive environment is named “Atlante di Roma” (Atlas of Rome) and it is an instance of a wider project which will be launched online on the website http://www.atlantedellevisioni.net . The project is curated by Paolo Valente, who practically made everything possible. The Atlas has another component which is called ABC Roma by Giuseppe Stampone.
Index Urbis, the logo of the Festa dell'Architettura
The idea is to create a display/interact environment that is able to let people experience multiple views on the city they live in or that they’re visiting, and to research and investigate on the visions that architects, artists, institutions and, in general, other people have had on urban spaces, through projects, actions, competitions, events, works, performances, research, institutional or political actions.
The system will be open to anyone and is designed to be reused, reshown and re-shared multiple times.

The environment is built from multiple components:
a 35 meters wide projection composed through 8 collaborating servers processing in realtime the interactions coming from the Atlas
on the projection 4 interactive infoaesthetic representations show the visions hosted in the Atlas and the interactions of the individuals choosing to be part of the experience:
Linearity
In Linearity the visions take the form of mechanisms grabbing their life energy from the interactions among individuals and themes. Spheres represent visions and, while moving, they are constantly fed from the themes that they explore.
NeoMap
Neo Map explores territories bypassing their geophysical or toponomastic characteristics, and describes them theough the projects, actions and the lives that exist in them. In the visualization circles represent the visions, dislocated according to their reciprocal geographical locations and connected by subjects, thus creating a new visually semantic geography.
Bridges
Bridges explores interconnections. Visions orbit around the respective themes, in a cyclic procession. Visions and themes dynamically show bridges and interconnections, according to he subjects and actions that they share.
TimeScape
Timescape transforms the passage of time into a landscape. Visions are represented in their time dimension, occupying spaces that are proportional to their duration and sequence. A geography defined through time and correlation is made visible and interactable.
The sounds populating all of the visualizations are completely generated by the contents, interactions and from the emerging data, inferring new relationships among people and projects and representing them in sounds.
4 multitouch screens will allow people to interact with the environment, controlling interfaces that will materialize directly onto the large projection.
