Collective Keywords

Parasite 2.0 is a Milan-based undisciplinary office for spatial storytelling— a design and research agency that performs in-between architecture, design, and scenography.

Collective keywords untangles the narratives driving their practice through a blend of words, concepts, and imagery. This visual essay traces five key terms – Stigmergy, Artificial Nature, Desert Islands, Sampling, and Primitive Future – as Parasite 2.0 navigates seamlessly, interconnecting their practice with visual inspirations.

The outcome is a blueprint for a novel design approach founded on multidisciplinarity and bold experimentation, demonstrating the necessity for innovative navigational strategies in our contemporary world.

Collective Keywords is part of the Visual Essays Series, a collection of books for those seeking new visual cues for looking at reality.
