The elements of this world include models of
le Corbusier's Unité d'Habitation and Mies van der
Rohe's furniture, a McDonald's restaurant, a 10,000-watt boom
box, a ghetto, a modernist art park, and a DJ station.
These elements are connected by a network of
roads that link important architecture to slum neighborhoods,
the high to the low, the rich to the poor.
The installation is navigated on these roads
by remote-control cars, also at 1:25 scale.
