The Ticket That Exploded, is a novel published in 1962 by William S. Burroughs, which perfectly represents the author’s idea of a language as a virus. According to the writer, the language was not a natural code nor the shared air in which we all move making sense, but a devious opponent to be disarticulated, broken down and destroyed. Starting from this reflection, the project consists in revisiting the novel created with the aim to be destructed and altered through a series of physical processes. Concept and Design : Fabio Bacchini, Gianluca Ciancaglini, Giacomo Dal Prà, Alessandro Latela, Luca Longobardi
