The "Urban Resemblance" project, is a simple exercise of curiosity that turn into a hypothetical theory which explains a fascinating phenomenon of existence such as fractals, using a combination of physical elements easily recognizable. What I did was to arrange a city with electrical circuits, manipulating them with great subtlety, without changing them much. The result has a close similarity with the city at its most physical level, as if they could be two links in a long chain of fractals. Fractals are define as "geometric objects whose basic structure, fragmented or irregular repeats at different scales". I found it really valuable just for the fact that structure is an essential factor in the elements of our environment, and trying to understand the structure of artificial developments is a strong effort to learn who we are, and how are we programed.
