The Cove Movie: Welcome. Manual of Architectural Possibilities. As many people who attended my book launch this past weekend in New York will already know, I had on hand a fantastic new publication by architect David Garcia: the Manual of Architectural Possibilities, or M.A.P. [Images: M.A.P. by David Garcia]. I had the pleasure of meeting David back in Sweden earlier this month at the ASAE conference; David's presentation and our subsequent conversation – ranging from the architecture of déjà vu and haunted house novels to the possibility of sonic archives and the work of David Gissen – were more than enough to show that he is pushing forward through some incredibly interesting ideas and is already someone worth keeping an eye on now, not just in the future.
He's even just completed a cool children's playground in suburban Denmark. Issue One of M.A.P. – or poster #1, really, as it all unfolds into a double-sided A1 sheet – is about Antarctica.

Así, si según el DRAE, utopía significa "Plan, proyecto, doctrina o sistema optimista que aparece como irrealizable en el momento de su formulación", y coloquialmente se entiende como aquello que es ideal e irrealizable, su antónimo, "distopia" viene a significar algo no sólo "no ideal", sino indeseable.
Obviamente, cualquier catastrofe (la caída de un asteroide, una guerra nuclear, una plaga que asola a la humanidad...) es un escenario distópico, en el sentido de que es indeseable, pero no es esto lo que en ciencia ficción se entiende como distopía. En ciencia ficción, una distopía es una tendencia de parte de la sociedad, o de todo su conjunto, hacia algún rasgo aparentemente utópico, pero que esconde aspectos no deseables. Por ejemplo, la tecnificación de la sociedad puede favorecer las relaciones interpersonales, mejorar la fluidez comercial u otros innumerables beneficios en cualquier área imaginable.
