The Tools of Mediation: Extending the Diagrammatic Project

Abstract

So how do we re-open, once again, a discussion of the diagram within the contemporary architectural culture? As was suggested in introductions to the seminar, the diagram is somewhat missing from our formal curricula, teaching programmes, and recent publications. 1 It is no longer seen as a key part of the mainstream academic discourse – especially when it comes to explicit theoretical engagement and practical exploration – due to our strained relationship with its past.
