The materiality of the construction by ‘’computation and robotic process’’
developed more precisely in this following text will integrate, in this new
Opus, its own life span, as a protocol of death and life, of Eros and Thanatos.
The substances of the indeterminacy will be impermanent, and by this way
affected by necrosis, shrinking, metabolizing…. sensitive to external or internal
(chemical, bacteria, climate…) agent in correspondence to the transformation
of the environmental condition.
The constructive materiality of the self organizing contract will become a
factor, an agent of permanent re-shaping, through a skyzophrenic energy
between it s own bio-degradable desapearing and the maintenance of it’s
physicality.
This battle, this conflict will work both in strategies of addition and subtraction
processes, with the risk that, in this field of war, the building could die.
The negociation (robotic behavior, computation protocols, chemical biopolymer…)
of its life span will become the substract of its own aesthetic.
The parameters and the agents of mutation will be controlled to increase or
not speediness and radiation of decomposition.
This new version of (n)certainties introduces the unprediction as a factor
of production but simultaneously of transformation, until even a complete
degradation as a C2C story (Cradle to Cradle).
“That the democracy deficit in the making of the city and the abuse of tools
– dating from a period where the reason of a few presided over the destiny
of the many – made it impossible to take on board mutations produced by
the fragmentation of informational and productive mechanisms”.“That liberal
space was constructed in terms of social control, and that the contemporar 30th-century city retained all the stigmata of that”.
Deleuze, introduction to Anomalie Sauvage, Toni Negri, PUF, 1983
-Impermanency of the substances, as ‘’things which necrose’’
-uncertainty and unachievment (of each invidudual living part and collective
structure)
-no pure privacy as an individual insulation, as a gate flat
-a minimum three store living (a cave, a flat, a attic)
-local negociation / no global control (on view, on air, on access…) for local
adpatation, variability, as a “desirable machine”
- measurment and strategy of colonisation (no panoptic references but XYZ
positionning /GPS)
- strategies of bio-mechanical robot (from low tech to high tech) / strategy of
construction…even deconstruction / reconstruction
