This augmented reality application enhances a museum installation centered around Aldo Rossi, Eraldo Consolascio, Bruno Reichlin, and Fabio Reinhart's The Analogous City, a seminal artwork from the 1976 Venice Biennale of Architecture. The app, used in conjunction with a reproduction of The Analogous City (available at http://archizoom.epfl.ch), overlays digital layers onto the artwork, revealing the complete source material of its collage.

Essential for interacting with the digital installation at the Aldo Rossi - The window of the poet, Prints 1973-1997 exhibition at the Bonnefanten Museum (Maastricht), Archizoom EPFL (Lausanne), and GAMeC (Bergamo), the application offers a unique interactive experience. Purchasing the Archizoom-published map reproduction of The Analogous City allows users to recreate this interactive experience anytime, anywhere. This printed map includes texts by Aldo Rossi, Fabio Reinhart, and Dario Rodighiero.

Conceived as a true urban project, The Analogous City (La Città Analoga) incorporates diverse elements, including Giovanni Battista Caporali's drawing of Vitruvius' city (1536), Galileo Galilei's Pleiades Constellation drawing (1610), Tanzio da Varallo's painting David and Goliath (ca 1625), Francesco Borromini's plan of San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane (1638-1641), the Dufour topographic map (1864), Le Corbusier's plan for the Notre Dame du Haut chapel (1954), and various architectural projects by Aldo Rossi and his collaborators.

As Aldo Rossi himself described in Lotus International #13 (1976): “Between past and present, reality and imagination, the analogous city is perhaps simply the city to be designed day by day, tackling problems and overcoming them, with a reasonable certainty that things will ultimately be better.”
