All parts stand on their own, but use technological infrastructure to work together in order to form the necessary playground for ecological progress. A “center for innovation” is no longer centralized, it’s a series of interconnected modules that mimic the structure of how we process knowledge itself. It’s an open library, it’s built for communication.

FUTURE OF FAST FOOD
