This augmented reality application enhances the experience of Aldo Rossi's Analogous City, a 1976 Venice Biennale artwork by Rossi, Consolascio, Reichlin, and Reinhart. The app, used in conjunction with a reproduction of The Analogous City (available at http://archizoom.epfl.ch), overlays digital layers onto the artwork, revealing the collages' complete source material.

Essential for the exhibition "Aldo Rossi - The window of the poet, Prints 1973-1997" at the Bonnefanten Museum (Maastricht), Archizoom EPFL (Lausanne), and GAMeC (Bergamo), the app facilitates interaction with the digital installation. Purchasing the Archizoom-published map reproduction of The Analogous City allows users to recreate the exhibition's interactive experience anywhere. This printed map includes texts by Rossi, Reinhart, and Rodighiero.

The Analogous City (La Città Analoga) was envisioned as a true urban design. Its components include diverse sources, such as Giovanni Battista Caporali's drawing of Vitruvius' city (1536), Galileo Galilei's Pleiades constellation drawing (1610), Tanzio da Varallo's painting David and Goliath (ca. 1625), Francesco Borromini's plan for San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane (1638-1641), the Dufour topographic map (1864), Le Corbusier's plan for Notre Dame du Haut chapel (1954), and various architectural designs by Rossi and his colleagues.

As Rossi himself described in Lotus International (no. 13, 1976): "Bridging past and present, reality and imagination, the analogous city is perhaps simply the city designed daily, confronting and overcoming challenges, with the reasonable assurance that things will ultimately improve."
