Summary:

"This publication - published for the exhibition of the same name is the MAK Vienna - documents the various works comprising the System Wien project. It develops an idea that the making of architecture can be understood as the organization of energy. The project explores how energy relations in public and private city spaces might be represented tectonically in the form of drawings and installations; how existing energy relations in the city can be changed by the input of new energy in the form of highly temporary spatial interventions; and how the future of the city need not depend for creative energy input on the development of building projects requiring large capital investments and institutional approval, but rather on the redistribution of energy at the human scale of the street and the room."--BOOK JACKET.
