How do you build a democracy? Today, we're going to set out to answer that question quite literally, with architectural historian Manuel López. After the dictatorship, in the late 1970s and early 1990s, the regional Government of Valencia mobilized architects, planners, and graphic artists to devise a new public sphere, hoping to recover a local identity that Franco’s dictatorship had repressed for decades. Manuel López has recently published a book on the subject, titled Architecture for Spain's Recovered Democracy.

After we talk to Manuel, we stick to the subject of architecture with the new exhibition La ciudad visible / La ciudad en juego (The visible city / The city at play). The exhibition offers a perpective on the connection between videogames and cities, and we learn all about it with Luca Garrubba, one of its curators.
