🗣UTOPIA, DYSTOPIA , HETEROTOPIA

How would you describe the world you live in? Is it exactly how you want it to be, or is it exactly what you know it to be? Have you thought about influencing it in such a way that the reality you once thought it to be, ceases to exist? But first, lemme define some of the types of worlds to help you understand what type of world you could be living in through engaging your unique perception.

#1 Utopia

Robert McCal 1983 mural, The prologue and the promise

A very perfect world attesting to one's ideals thought to be a series of imaginative fantasies put together to form what we call The Utopia. Since there's equality and justice for all, it is said to be highly desirable.

#2 Dystopia

A dystopian world is also a very imaginative representation of everything that is the exact opposite of a Utopia which is frightening in the sense that it could just mean that it is highly undesirable.

#3 Heterotopia

It is a concept defined by a philosopher named Michel Foucault who describes it to be a certain cultural or institutional space that is somehow intense and disturbing in a sense that they are contradictory or transforming since they could run parallel and mirror each other at the same time to influence and create a real Utopian world.

Which one do you belong to? Is it obvious that the world you live in is partially a Utopia and partially a Dystopia? or does it seem entirely Heterotopia? one and the same? How would you rather influence the world you live in?
