"An important point of research for 
was the work that Riccardo Dalisi 
undertook in the Traiano district of Naples. 
The result was a series of structures, objects and living spaces 
that Dalisi called "poor technology", 
which partially confirmed the theories 
of the creative potential of the general public."
