ABSTRACT:
Pura (Sanskrit) = City. Abhitti (Sanskrit) =No walls, having no walls. Globally, people are moving to the cities. Cities are growing and undergoing far-reaching identity changes. Migration is not simply about the wandering of people. People are increasingly crossing borders to find work. This mobility is bringing far-reaching changes to habitable spac. An increasingly reflexive mode of consumption demands a more self-conscious mode of production. Can ‘Service Provider Cities’ be grouped and networked to create a “Supra-national free-movement zone” with no borders? How can technology serve a base for this concept? Can Knowledge & service providing bridge over the barrier of ‘National States’? How can the idea of a ‘Trans-home’ be facilitated?
