There is a widespread feeling that postmodernism is on its way out. However, up to now there has been no attempt to define what the epoch after it would look like. Performatism, or the End of Postmodernism is the first book to offer a systematic theory of culture after postmodernism. The book maintains that we have entered a new, monist epoch in which aesthetically imposed belief replaces endless irony as the dominant force in culture.

The landscape of the earth is like a skin or veil, wrapping the globe in its different guises. Cities are like the skins of this skin: second skins. Architecture uses the skin of the earth; it makes it inhabitable. Architecture also turns the skin on the earth; into an expression of another space, an inner world of dreams and desires.

For the first time, in a site-specific work the CHORA manifesto on innovative urban planni
