Bureaucracy, Progress, and Destruction
(A Slightly Fictional Narrative for the Masses)
Almin Pršić

日本語 / “... Now, only bodies and folk tales floated in the bowels of the basin, producing a stringy narrative out of historical threads at hand. The constant trespassing of the state had reached an undesired terminus...”

Part fiction and part personal diary, Bureaucracy, Progress, and Destruction narrates the evolution of Bosnia’s central corridor from the perspective of its communist leader Josip Broz Tito. Its only aim: to bring light to the corridor and reveal the intricacies of its decay.

日本語 / Almin Pršić lives and works in Cambridge, MA. His work focuses on architecture as a cultural discipline and emerges from an intense engagement with history, pedagogy, mainstream trends, bad music videos, radical art projects, functional requirements, pragmatic thinking and user comfort. It is also a result of typological, media and material experimentation, as well as close collaborations with bankers, developers, engineers, artists, social scientists, writers or congressmen. His current research focuses on the Bosna River basin in Bosnia and Herzegovina and delves into questions of landscape as a monument and agent of development. Almin also teaches at the Rhode Island School of Design.
