Abstract

"The womb, the mysterious place where life takes shape, has been opened to the world. Today it symbolises a radically new concept of the body, characterised by an unprecedented continuity between exterior and interior; when the naked eye can go no further, artificial sight takes over, revealing life's most intimate and secret aspects. An instrument of this new continuity between surface and depth, the machine leads our eyes and our senses into our body, to the depths of our planet or onto the moon. From being an instrument of alterity between nature and artifice, it has now become the tool for a new dialogue between men, and between man and matter, between man and nature. While the body, invaded and dilated by technology, becomes architecture, architecture in turn looks to the body, not as a model of order and formal measurement, but as a model of sensitivity, flexibility, intelligence and communicative capacity. Whereas the body designs its own spatial extension, architecture designs its corporeal future. In order to translate the sensitive architecture of the living body into new intelligent spaces, the information paradigm must be changed from the mechanical and computational logic of the abstract machine into a logic of visual and metaphorical complexity, the logic that underlies the physical or corporeal basis of living systems."

Abstract

"In an age dominated by the Internet and electronic media it is becoming increasingly clear that our perception of space is also undergoing a profound transformation. The author takes the reader on a fascinating journey, revealing who has played a part in this transformation. Avant-garde artists, including Boccioni, Duchamp and Kandinsky, the architect Gropius, philosophers such as Wittgenstein and psychoanalysts like Carl Gustav Jung all contributed to this development. Today, our awareness of traditional architectural space is changing; buildings are being rendered transparent, fleeting and intangible, enhanced by virtual potential. The author looks at works by Rem Koolhaas, Jean Nouvel, Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, James Wines, Daniel Libeskind, Toyo Ito, which reflect building in an age of virtual realism."
