What Is After The White Stage In Cubefield

My "Invisible City" Singing in the Rain

If you want to believe me, good. Time will tell how it is made Octavia , city - spider web. There is a precipice between two steep mountains, the city is over the void, bound to the two crests with ropes and chains and catwalks. You walk on the wooden ties, careful not mettereil foot during breaks, or you cling to the hempen. Below there is nothing for hundreds and hundreds of feet: a few clouds glide past; glimpse below the bottom of the ravine. This is the basis of the city: a network that serves as passage and sostegno.Tutto the rest, instead of rising up, is hung below: rope ladders, hammocks, houses made like sacks, clothes hangers, terraces like gondolas, skins of 'water, gas jets, spits, baskets on strings, elevators, showers, trapezes and rings for children games, cable cars, chandeliers, potted foliage plants pendulo.Sospesa abyss, the life of Octavia's inhabitants is less uncertain than in other cities. They know that much about the network fails.

And this is my interpretation of the invisible city.
