MOOTE

History is told in time. Here, it’s revealed in space.

At MOOTE, I create visual essays about cities using self-made maps and historical artworks.

My videos explore cities as spatial systems, not just historical stories. Drawing from my background in architecture and a Master's in Architecture & History from Politecnico di Milano, I examine how streets, walls, grids, and buildings shape everyday life over time — rather than following linear timelines or famous figures.

Having lived and studied across China and Europe, I bring a comparative lens: from imperial China's walled capitals to Europe's fortified centers.

This channel is for viewers who see cities as designed environments shaped by time, power, and use.

This is an independent, one-person project — research, maps, and editing all done by me alone. Updates are slow, but every episode is deeply researched.

PS✨: Each city unfolds across 2–3 stand-alone episodes, also grouped into collections tracing its full history.
