Keep Flaminio Clean fue una experiencia cívica de gran valor, que inicié en el barrio romano de Flaminio en 2021. Durante seis meses, organicé limpiezas semanales en algunas de las zonas públicas más descuidadas del barrio, en un esfuerzo nacido de la convicción personal tras constatar el avanzado estado de degradación del entorno.

Todo comenzó de forma discreta, después de mis entrenamientos al aire libre, con pequeñas intervenciones recogiendo basura en solitario. Una mañana, mientras la tarea se prolongaba y llamaba la atención de los vecinos, otras personas decidieron unirse. Venían de edades y recorridos notablemente diversos, cada uno aportando su energía, sus habilidades y un rechazo compartido a aceptar una realidad degradada. Con el tiempo, formamos un equipo de alrededor de diez personas.

Inspirado por el lema de los skaters locales “Keep your spot clean” y en paralelo a una iniciativa más longeva de limpieza de los jardines de Flaminio, dimos al proyecto el nombre de Keep Flaminio Clean. Con el paso de las semanas, nuestras intervenciones se extendieron a espacios públicos cada vez más amplios, que se volvieron más limpios, más bellos y más utilizados por los vecinos. Las áreas más limpias fomentaron estancias más largas, mejoraron la seguridad y beneficiaron al comercio local.

El proyecto se interrumpió inesperadamente, justo cuando estábamos empezando los contactos con los recién elegidos responsables municipales. Aun así, su impacto fue tangible: durante medio año, el gesto semanal de cuidado ayudó a construir un entorno más habitable y compartido por todos.

El 29 de octubre de 2021, por ejemplo, cinco voluntarios (Luciano, Elena, Santiago, Michi y yo) limpiamos 1.000 metros cuadrados de jardín entre la Viale Pinturicchio y la Piazza Mancini, en una sola intervención de tres horas.

Keep Flaminio Clean foi uma experiência cívica de duração limitada e de grande valor, que iniciei no bairro romano de Flaminio em 2021. Durante cerca de seis meses, organizei limpezas semanais em algumas das zonas públicas mais negligenciadas do bairro, num esforço nascido da convicção pessoal depois de testemunhar o estado avançado de degradação da área.

Tudo começou de forma discreta, depois dos meus treinos ao ar livre, com pequenas intervenções a recolher lixo sozinho. Numa manhã, enquanto o trabalho se prolongava e chamava a atenção dos vizinhos, outras pessoas decidiram juntar-se. Vinham de idades e percursos notavelmente diversos, cada um trazendo a sua energia, competências e a recusa partilhada em aceitar uma realidade degradada. Com o tempo, formámos uma equipa de cerca de dez pessoas.

Inspirado pelo lema dos skaters locais “Keep your spot clean” e em paralelo com uma iniciativa mais antiga de limpeza dos jardins de Flaminio, demos ao projecto o nome Keep Flaminio Clean. Ao longo das semanas, as nossas intervenções alargaram-se a espaços públicos maiores, que se tornaram mais limpos, mais bonitos e mais utilizados pelos moradores. Áreas mais limpas incentivaram estadias mais prolongadas, melhoraram a segurança e apoiaram o comércio local.

O projecto foi interrompido inesperadamente, precisamente quando estávamos a iniciar contactos com os recém-eleitos responsáveis municipais. Ainda assim, o seu impacto foi tangível: durante meio ano, o gesto semanal de cuidado construiu um ambiente mais habitável e partilhado por todos.

Keep Flaminio Clean was a short-lived but deeply valuable civic experiment I initiated in Rome’s Flaminio district in 2021. For about six months, I organised weekly clean-ups in some of the neighbourhood’s most neglected public areas, an effort born from personal conviction after witnessing the area’s advanced state of decay.

It began quietly, after my own outdoor training sessions, with small solo interventions collecting litter. One morning, as the work extended and drew the attention of neighbours, others decided to join. They came from notably diverse backgrounds and ages, each bringing their own energy, skills, and shared refusal to accept a degraded reality. In time, we became a team of about ten.

Inspired by local skaters’ motto “Keep your spot clean” and in parallel with a longer-standing initiative in Flaminio’s gardens, we named the project Keep Flaminio Clean. Over the weeks, our interventions expanded to larger public spaces, which became cleaner, more beautiful, and better used by residents. Cleaner areas encouraged longer public stays, improved safety, and supported local commerce.

The project was unexpectedly discontinued just as we were beginning contact with newly elected municipal officials. Still, its impact was tangible: for half a year, the weekly gesture of care built a more livable, shared environment for all.

On 29 October 2021, for example, five volunteers (Luciano, Elena, Santiago, Michi, and myself) cleaned 1,000 square metres of garden between Viale Pinturicchio and Piazza Mancini in a single three-hour intervention.

🥤🥤🥤“Protein Clickbait for the 14%, or How to Make a Protein Shake to Geo-engineer Seven Million Spanish Bodies” explores how the protein industry —driven by the health, fitness and beauty industries— is in turn sculpting territories. Our contribution to the Spanish Pavilion for the 2023 Venice Architecture Biennale FOODSCAPES now opens at Madrid’s La Casa de la Arquitectura.

Recent studies have highlighted a growing trend in protein consumption, with up to 14 percent of the Spanish population already consuming and 60 percent of North Americans actively seeking to consume more protein. This surge in interest is driven by a desire for social advantage and a perceived idealisation of anatomical forms, leading to an increased demand for whey protein powder and other nutritional supplements. An increasing desire for protein has been intensified by the flooding in social media of content that aims to endlessly feed our libidinal impulse and bombard us with a disproportionate number of athletic physiques.

The sports nutrition industry isn’t merely manufacturing food: it’s developing an appetite in the world. To support this, entire industrial warehouse neighbourhoods exist attuned to moisture control, fulfilment, and shipping, all to expand delivery of products from points of sale to the homes of consumers everywhere. As our bodies become a site of intensification for the proteins that our desires, landscapes, and factories yield, these places— and the world itself— becomes synthetic as well. Human bodies, gyms, and farms alike are stations for the bioamplification of proteins in an atomized supply chain driven by self-design. 🥤🥤🥤

La semana pasada en un gimnasio de Oporto pude conocer y entablar conversación con Felipe, con Tania y con Murilo. Me cuentan que llevan entrenando juntos en familia casi un año, varios días a la semana, aunque Felipe va más días, ya por su cuenta. Murilo lleva practicando deporte muchos años y Tania me relataba que su madre, habiendo hecho mucho deporte durante su vida, había envejecido mejor que su hermana, tía de Tania, que llevaba peor la vejez. Tania observaba además un diferente envejecimiento entre las mujeres portuguesas y las europeas, cosa que me llamó la atención y que puedo entender por tener familia atlántica, gallega, que envejece diferentemente de cómo lo hace mi familia materna, madrileña, capitalina. Con ellos me alegré de constatar que @empezamooos ya está sucediendo. Agradecí que me dejaran hacer un par de retratos para hablar de ellos en mis círculos, y la palabra que ellos me repitieron más en portugués fue « Parabéns ». Parabéns por esta iniciativa que ahora arranca y que encontrará la manera de reunirnos con nuestros mayores en torno a la práctica del deporte. Para que todos estemos más sanos y más acompañados. Desde aquí yo les felicito a ellos porque representan una visión de familia y sociedad con valores que deseo celebrar y difundir. Muito obrigado y hasta pronto @felipebarboza2

@empezamooos es una iniciativa destinada a fomentar la práctica del deporte haciendo una pregunta muy sencilla: has pensado en invitar a tu madre a ir al gimnasio contigo? O a tu padre? Tu abuela? Tus tíos? EMPEZAMOS está destinada a transformar el espacio emblemático asociado al deporte y al fitnes: los gimnasios. Aumentando la diversidad de los usuarios de un gimnasio se fomenta también la inclusividad y con ella la seguridad, quizá la tolerancia también. Superando la barrera actual de la normatividad indistintamente del género, la condición física, la edad, el peso, la figura o la diferencia funcional

🥤🥤🥤Terraform yourself in a few easy steps! Studies estimate that up to 14 percent of the Spanish population consumes protein shakes, while 60 percent of North Americans actively seek to consume more protein today. Our consumption of whey protein powder is driven by an awareness of the online and one’s own image in relation to anatomical forms perceived as being ideal. It is theorized that this in turn is driven by a desire for social advantage bred from the enduring concern for survival wired into the human brain. Invoking notions of health and nutrition, the whey protein industry has stepped in largely to streamline our metabolic absorption of the nutrient environment for these and other ends. As athletic bodies become a site of intensification for the proteins that our desires, landscapes, and factories yield, we turn them synthetic as well. The agricultural landscapes that the dairy industry structures to yield herd feed, raise cows, and extract milk exhibit a symmetry with the human bodies that they allow to become toned and hardened in turn. Each site – the territorial and the anatomical – has their constitutive regimens and diets, their built-up stores of nutrient rations, their furrowed channels and sculpted topographies, and demonstrates an intensification driven by near singular purpose. Human bodies and farms alike are stations for the bioamplification of proteins in an atomized supply chain driven by self-design.
