Architecture of The Stomach. Endogenous Assimilation Processes

Abstract

As we run to keep pace with time, technological innovations, and the paradigm shift in the conception of embodied theory, the fluidization of all human issues has led to a way of conceiving anthropic space entirely different from what we are accustomed to. Transdisciplinarity, arising from these shifts in values, not only necessitates cooperation but also converges towards a unified consciousness in search of new systems of communication of meanings. The role of form in architecture today is probably to create connections with the city, thus transfiguring itself in meaning and disengaging from typological issues and classifications. The direct relationship between form and meaning has become uncertain, and the immediate visual-tactile connection to architectural themes has broken down. The immanence of form has mostly given way to a contaminated image, cultivated by a pluralism of influences balancing between reality and dream, between interior and exterior, between private and public. Architecture turns, overturns its hidden interior, and unfolds provocatively towards urbanity in continuous pursuit of the new collective.
