"ekphrasis architecture conversation rhizome digital art dendur cloister manifesto" "Specifically, as an object of the mind, resolution in architecture may be thought of as a rhizomatic layering of ideas that the structure represents and/or embodies." "In a theoretical sense, thinking of the void created by architecture as architecture itself (i.e. the sphere of the Pantheon) helps to reveal underlying ideas, compacted and layered over time like layers of the earth, for, in a sense, the further towards the present one goes in consideration of architecture as theoretical objects, the more complex and rhizomatic these ideas seem to become, many that have perhaps yet to be extracted." "And, as humanity itself has waxed and waned, convulsed and regenerated in a myriad of ways, so to has its expression of itself and what it holds dear." "rhizome, architecture" "ekphrasis architecture conversation rhizome digital art" "In turn, it is at this specific point in time that “in its present state” will bear greater significance, because, it appears, we are on the cusp of new ways of extracting, adding to and elaborating with the rhizome of ideas that underpin the canon, and even more so, non-canonical, architecture in the age of thought outside the mind.
