pinocchio

pinocchio is an interesting metaphor/analogy used by ben aranda and cris lasch at their lecture in iit, briefly presented here.
the typology of pinocchio could be compared with the typology of the grotto.
the grotto is a landscape type, as if pinocchio is a real boy.
they want to transcend the type.
boy boy VS talking wooden boy.
which one do you prefer?
