2 TOPIC

/you’methane /

is an ancient mythological figure,

gas is a satellite of Saturn,

a romantic temperament,

a large vessel sunk.

TItano's was also the mountain on which rise the towers and castles of San Marino.

The design of the impossible, possesses the ability to view, production of thought that goes beyond the narrow confines of the production and simplified object, convenientistica and formal. Crossing, with sporadic interest, nomadic, romantic solipsism, design titanic compel artists invited to enter into the labyrinth of maze, nell'eterotopia focaultiana, thought that detonates and clears the language.

- We therefore ask, is the impossibility a condition?

- But above, what are the criteria and conditions of the possible and the impossible?

This project hypothesis (perhaps, rather, anti - design) is also an indication of important method for artists who are engaged in a training: wonder about the "condition" as sine qua non for the birth of a job as a part, the other the need to devise artistic work as an activity of thought, to dilate in a long period of time and articulated.

The final challenge is the inability of the Titan. Besides the thinkable, and therefore the language, over the place, beyond the experience. And for this reason measurement of language, places and experiences.
