Villa Capra "La Rotonda" in Vicenza (A. Palladio, middle 1500).
Villa Pisani "Rocca Pisana" in Lonigo, Vicenza (V. Scamozzi, last 1500). You see here some pictures of ancient villa in Vicenza, my native town, in the hills between Alps and the sea, Italy NE. The villa has been commissioned by Almerico Capra, a papal prelate, to Andrea Palladio, the famous neoclassical architect, around the middle of XVI century. It has been completed by Vincenzo Scamozzi, his alumn. In the same years this villa has been completed, Scamozzi designed and started the building of a new similar but radically different villa, Villa 'Rocca Pisana', in Lonigo. The new villa, the 'perfect villa' in the idea of Scamozzi, is based on a centrifugal dynamic, instead of the centripetal dynamic of Villa Capra. Is this what social network is introducing in this new internet era? I remember years ago the new technologies allowed the substitution of large mainframes with small personal computers. That was a revolution: common people and workers were able to take the center, and large centralized information system architecture has been changed in network modular architectures, able to transfer data and services to the multitude of centers, the users. Now people is again in the center, but oriented to the external, from the single to the collectivity, and technology is supporting this new dynamic. A centrifugal force, without loosing the center: like in the 'perfect villa' of Scamozzi. Sign in to be able to view jlive's guestbook and friends list!
