Joseph sez: 
"Cities designed like printed circuits with fake lagoons vs (Arrabal arable) land from Mazatlan still connected to its own history"
I really love this line! The massed production of purchased ownership vs the multi-generational evolution of earned space.
In the same way that the 'chicks' are possessions that can be 'stolen' or 'purchased' with wealth, the neighborhoods created by developers are plots to be purchased with loans or wealth rather than earned by effort of developing the land, making the land 'arable' rather than in need of nourishment.
In solidarity,
James
