Disko (acronym for Diskurs-Kontinuum) was a publication series of 0093 a42.org, the master’s program in architecture and urban research directed by Arno Brandlhuber at the Academy of Fine Arts Nuremberg. The aim of this series was to communicate the research and debates taking place within the study program to the outside world. Disko appeared between 2006 and 2013 in packages of three to six issues, each of which was produced in an economical DIN A5 format.

Disko 5
Humans are instinct-inhibited beings, who therefore, unlike animals, live, communicate, and act in a second nature. They live with consciousness, their imaginations originally concern instinctual aims that are virtualized in an imaginative way. The deferred fulfilment of their instincts becomes work that is motivated by imagination and thus enables them to live and survive together. This results in a lot of confusion. Much of what is presumed to be true and right turns out to be different after all, let alone the difficulties that arise when what is presumably right is communicated.

We’re like crystal, we break easy
I’m a poor man, if you leave me
I’m applauded, then forgotten
It was summer, now it’s autumn

Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming New Order, “Crystal” Read less
