Space Frames is a cross-platform transdisciplinary exercise
intending a phenomenological deconstruction
(Abau) of our perception of space, comprehended
as the existential support of our being-in-the-world, our dwelling.
Throughout the
successive assemblage (Verbindung) of
disjointed representations of life and built environment in different media, the
notion of dwelling will be disclosed by
itself so as to permit its better understanding.
Cinema will
initially have a prominent, nearly ubiquitous place here, as it can be
considered one of the most truthful renditions of architecture into media, just
second to corporeal experience.
Besides the
critical analysis of architectural and anthropological depictions in films, other
human expressions such as sounds and music, dances, books and written pieces (thoughts),
sports and the arts and crafts in general, will be illuminated under the frame
of its spatial gist.
Blockbuster
movies and buildings are not into consideration in this space. The frame
ought to be used to look through it, not just to be displayed alone, devoid of
meaning.
Although this is a mostly personal project, its
open presentation might be of interest for the public development of
transdisciplinarity between the humanities and may eventually become open to different
collaborations and approaches.
