A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Dross or techno‐junk is threatening to take over and consume our cities, as exemplified by the Chinese city of Giuyu, a renowned recipient of electronic and toxic waste. Rather than reject dross as an unwanted and unsightly by‐product of urban life, Lydia Kallipoliti invokes a change in approach that calls for the need to engage with techo‐excrements, endorsing Slavoj Žižek's appeal for ‘more artificiality and less nature’.
