first, entitled “Dilúvio”, concerns experiences and perceptions of the May 2024 floods in the Brazilian
state of Rio Grande do Sul. It was composed from events reported in the media or experienced by us
first-hand. The second narrative series, named “Acolhimento”, is a philosophical exploration of these
events through the plane of immanence constructed - over decades of writing - by the Franco-Algerian
philosopher Jacques Derrida. With a primary interest in the notions of the ethics of hospitality he
developed, this paper seeks, through a narrative procedure of montage, to exercise philosophical thought
from the dimension of the experience of a sensible and shared world. We seek, therefore, not only to
narrate the facts of the world but, from some data of reality, to produce new meanings about what
happens to us.
In this article we seek to problematize the relations between the production of the formal
city and subjectivities in the urban space, drawing from the concepts of crooked, open
and modest city, proposed by Richard Sennett in Building and Dwelling (SENNETT,
2018). We seek to discuss the production of urban waterfront landscapes in a globalized
context and, more specifically, the edges of the city of Porto Alegre. We begin by placing
the sennettian concepts of ville and cité, the desire for the city implied in the design
production of the urban landscape and the relationships with human experience. In the
second part, we comment on the crooked city, which deforms and resists smoothness,
exposing other ways of experiencing the city. Next, we discuss the open city, exploring
broader social phenomena, such as the pasteurized globalization of the landscape. In
a third moment, we invoke the modest city of the making of Homo Faber who is proud
