| Abstract: |
In this article the author talks about the exploration which has been driven by a deep concern that we are becoming increasingly disembodied and disenchanted from experience and understanding of the material and physical world, as well as the environments inhabit. Topics discussed include cut off and desensitized from a direct relationship to the outside environment, and proleptic nature of a design that needs to be fixed prefigures the deferral of architecture's being-in-time. |
