Research as a discursive activity gathering new forms of expression.
Duration, Steven Holl
Time is only understood in relation to a process or a phenomenon.
The duration of human beings alive in one time and place is a relational notion.
The time of one's being is provisional; it is a circumstance with an adopted aim for the time being.
SPACE-and ARCHITECTURE-exceeds the provisional
The Enchantment of Modern Life.
Attachments, Crossing and Ethics
The performativity of social representations
When I gather together the animals, arguments, molecules, suggestions, forces, interpretations, sounds, people, and images of this study, one theme emerges. The modern story of disenchantment leaves out important things, and it neglects crucial sources of ethical generosity in doing so. Without modes of enchantment, we might not have the energy and inspiration to enact ecological projects, or to contest ugly and unjust modes of commercialization, or to respond generously to humans and nonhumans that challenge our settled identities. These enchantments are already in and around us.
