From an ideal standpoint, this duality has been translated into a representation of their respective characteristics within the central nervous system's primary organ. The brain is, in fact, divided into the right and left hemispheres. The left hemisphere is dominant for functions of calculation, logical, mathematical abilities. The right hemisphere, on the other hand, is dominant for the ability to recognize faces, spatial skills, and images.
It has been fascinating to analyze and reproduce an "in-between" imaginary suspended in the atmosphere, visibly divided into two sections, both structurally and in the composition of the buildings themselves. However, everything is united by the overall anatomy of realities and the chromatic aspect which, when combined, form the intricacy of a brain.
Sofronia is a city characterized by its dual composition: half of it is dedicated to a wide range of colorful entertainment, while the other half is colored by institutional monochromatism. The author lists the main structures of the two parts, including the carousel with chains radiating outward, the revolving cage wheel, the pit of death with motorcyclists hanging upside down, the circus dome with a cluster of hanging trapezes in contrast to the stone, marble, and concrete reality, including the banks, factories, palaces, slaughterhouses, schools, and everything else.
"Le città invisibili" by Italo Calvino is a novel that recounts the conversations between Marco Polo and the Mongol emperor Kublai Khan. Marco Polo describes the cities he has visited during his travels in a symbolic and metaphorical manner, often representing aspects of human life such as love, death, power, and solitude. Each city has its own uniqueness and peculiarities, but at the end, it is discovered that all these cities are somehow interconnected with each other.
