Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically the dance club is both an anthropological and architectural phenomenon. The cultural and economical evolution of society progressively transformed the idea of entertainment, and consequently the spaces in which it is formed and shaped. Today discotheques are hardly designed by architects, but rather temporary occupations of spaces which are dedicated to other functions. Through the photographs of Giovanna Silva, a selection of interviews and critical texts, Nightswimming explores this fascinating world from the 1960s until today.
