Architecture

2017-04-21

With this project, I explore the transformative affect of the architectural intervention, as a micro-regime of power itself; with a power that enables the mediation of control in the city and in this case, mediating the legibility of the flow resource, water, in the city of Agadir. I argue that with the articulation of proportion [eurythmy] , phenomena and order, the architectural intervention will overlay a set of values and instruction upon its subjects. Holding a dual relationship with the society it associates with; deriving of it whilst producing it. The articulation of these three paradigms; proportion, phenomena and order, together offer the extent of legibility and thus an attainable level of control or lack thereof; be it control over citizens, machinery, infrastructures, or politics. The objectives here are the empowerment of citizens, the deconstruction of a state agenda and the re-commoning of resources.
