TETRADONİA

Tetradonia is a city inspired by Eudoxia from the novel Invisible Cities, created as a new urban fiction in which a creature named E-dox exists. E-dox represents maps and the idea of finding direction through triangles, and it moves in two or three main ways: it can jump using the spring on its foot, spin, and move its arms to create a flow of information. E-dox uses different structures in the city to protect its natural richness, allowing the city to be passed from generation to generation, and due to its shape and body structure, it helps other creatures find their way. At the beginning, there is a semi-open shelter that perfectly fits E-dox’s arms and is accessed by an elevator; this space allows E-dox to look outside and store information, which it uses as energy. In the city, there are four information storage centers in total, two of which provide the information E-dox needs to make an effort, while the other two store information for the city itself. After E-dox collects all the necessary information, the paths become three-dimensional, meaning there are no further information-gathering places along the rest of the journey. E-dox then takes the central elevator to the first information transfer center without leaving the elevator; when it reaches the first level, the area becomes semi-open and starts to function, and three mini-dox creatures arrive at three points to receive information. Using the knowledge it previously collected, E-dox changes into different forms, and when the mini-dox creatures observe these forms, information is passed to the younger generation as nourishment. After this process, E-dox ascends again by elevator and jumps onto a route marked with a triangle, as triangle-marked paths are its main routes. It then reaches the triangular monument, the second information collection center, where it transfers the information it holds; once the transfer is complete, the area becomes active, and E-dox jumps down through an opening, unharmed by the height due to a slowing surface below. Finally, E-dox follows the three-dimensional path, leaves the information transfer route, and returns to the information collection center, completing its cycle within the city of Tetradonia.
