Ministry of the Infraordinary

About

At the Ministry of the infra ordinary we are concerned with noticing the subtle fabric that makes up our urban surroundings. Using qualitative and generous methods to interrogate the ever-changing ecosphere that constitute our cities. Working in close relation with partners such as trees, trash-cans, lamp-posts and the canals we want to promote considerate and intimate relations between inhabitants and inhabited.

Whats new?

In a recent project we have partnered up with the counter-tourist information-center to conduct a subjective analysis of the urban space. Utilizing various technologies we have successfully mapped an outline of some of the networks that permeate our city. As we all know the urban is an ever shifting topology. Thus we are dependent on the willingness of people to help us continuously notice different aspects of the urban, in all forms at all scales. So please share your perspective and inform our mapping by placing a pin.

The Ministry of the Infraordinary invites you to experience the city of Rotterdam in ways you haven't imagined. Let the subjective infrastructure map inspire and guide you and search for views you haven't seen before, look up and under, listen carefully for the subtler sounds of life, consider your place and your role in this network of cables, waves and invisible connections and contribute to the photo map that aspires to make the city our own.
