In built form and ambition the Metropolis has become larger than life so that it could contain Man’s fantasies. Modernity has created a fixation upon the cognitively complex, an anxiety to realize designs which ooze desires. The psychical architecture of cities has become an accomplice to the behavior of its subjects—a kaleidoscope of 21st century schizoids, savants, and further permutations of the metropolitan denizen—all voluntary subjects of urbanity.
