First part of the story of each participant.-

  • “Allegories of Home” by Zabie Mustafa and Neda Kakhsaz.-

I had once entered a dream as a young boy, a dream to escape my world, a dream entered into the unconscious. Tempted by fate and the lust of curiosity. I know very little of the world I had entered. A world much severely distinct from the one you and I are familiar with.

The dream smelled of dark cedar and damp dew grass, it was struck with an uncharacteristic beauty and a fascinating aura of frightening mystique. Constrictively constructed by stone stalactites, the world I encountered was made up of these mineral formed coarse pillars that appeared as if they were once the horns of an animal, now buried in soil. Its grounds, un-peripheral and its sky, indistinguishable, my new world seemed to be bound-less. Light festered through severed openings from countless directions, as if a body were punctured on the outside to introduce light to its interiors.

  • “How You Can Rhino the Jingo Out of Everything & Architecture Gets More Than A Skin” by J P Maruszczak, Roger Connah, and Ryan Manning.-

ONCE upon a time, on an uninhabited Brutalist serviscape buiding called The Archipelago on the shores of Lake Algonquin, there lived a Baba-Ji from whose Fedora the rays of the sun were reflected in more-than-oriental splendour. As Baba-Ji was a Professor of By-Gone Architecture and Challenged Ideals, he lived by the lake with nothing but his hat and his G-Tec 0.4mm and a journal of onion paper that you must particularly never touch.

And one day he took pen and paper and cursor and pointer, powerpoint and prezi and made himself with the hlp of his partner Abba-Jan, one building which was two universe across and an earth thick.

  • “Sukkar” by Nenad Krstic, Ivana Radmanovac, and Iva Bekic.-

Once upon a time when Venus was in conjunction with Jupiter in the third house, mysterious holes appeared in the great desert. In that mystery which became a myth, there laid a city. This city was hidden deep under the desert surface with only exit marks visible on the outside. The Desert people lived inside because of the unbearable heat of the outside world. But that was a dark world for them to live in and they all dreamt of a sugar coated better place. Amongst others, one man stood out. This was a man called Joaquin and he was the ruler of everything and everyone.

  • “The Death Rehearsal” by Carol Nung.-

A woman believed to have been taken to the “Death Parade”

A woman in her 20s has died from falling off the sky at the cross road of Inokashira Dori at Shibuya in Tokyo. It happened shortly before 19:30 UTC on Tuesday. It is believed that the woman was dropped from a ripple on the sky. Within 30 minutes, witnesses pointed out that a group of 16 spirits dressed in white mofuku arrived at the site. They picked her up and put her on a Japanese sedan chair. They lighted up the red lantern on the top and then marched to the west along the Inokashira Dori, few minutes later they gradually disappeared in front of the witnesses eyes. The Tokyo police department and scientists are looking for a logical explanation for the event.

  • “The City Spoke” by Adam Longenbach.-

Listen,

It’s not possible to say exactly when or how the first city came to be. The origination of the city began long before the world had witnesses, and when there were finally witnesses there was still no speech, and when there was still no speech, well, communication of the past was entrusted to objects: An upturned stone, a fallen tree decaying, The negative of a thing stamped in mud — the short and longterm memories of the material world. So if time progressed before there was human record of its passing, its preservation and transmission owed itself to the substance of things, like frozen speech.

The foundation of this imminent discovery was

– a set of infinite universes existing in parallel to the observable one. It was derived when a diversion in the
observable universe (this one) transpired, and propelled onward down a new trajectory.
