After the duet theory lecture from last week, the reflection on the contemporary architect’s figure and the new professional roles of the mediating architect continues today, with-in the Advanced Architecture Theory Course lead by Manuel Gausa, Ricardo Devesa and Amadeu Santacana.
With some seemingly innocent questions on the Architect Mediator we aimed to establish a strong position.
What is the architect’s position nowadays?
Between what information is it located?
What exactly does this translate into?
Through the presentation of post-tweets, an intellectual positioning from non conventional routes of theory, we mapped out what, collectively, we feel is an architect today, generating an intense debate around this theme.
The map revealed diverse individual concepts (post-tweets) that cluster around common themes (selected keywords) forming densities of ideas and generating an overall view, and our answer to those seemingly innocent questions.
