SANKT PÖLTEN LEBT
St. Pölten will apply for the title of the Capital of Culture 2024 and is looking for presenting itself on the inter-national stage. The paper deals with the structures, the edges and the history of the city. What makes this city special and what does it want to be?
Based on these questions this thesis developed a design concept for the Capital of Culture year. The concept is an effort of trying to answer the question if you can bring a city to life by making the city itself a living/acting thing. The idea developed from the philosophical construct of the rhizome, which was envolved by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. The rhizome is originally a botanical term and describes a root network that is dynamic, processual and anti-hierarchical. There is no beginning and no end.
