Omschrijving

This volume brings together architects, urban designers and planners and asks them to reflect and report on the (built) place and the city to come, in the wake of Deleuze and Guattari.

This book dares to pose the question of what kind of architecture can realize the virtual plane of Ideas of Deleuze and Guattari’s philosophy. This because in spite of many years of theorizing about Deleuze and Guattari’s possible view of the role of architecture in their philosophy, there still has been no satisfactory answer to this question. The difficulty of this question and the complexity and diversity of the answers in this volume are due to the possibility or impossibility in the contemporary era of a nomadic architecture constituted as an immanent plane of trajectories, a swarm of intensities, the unlivable site of the body without organs, the differentiating principle of the fold, the unleashing of sensation, the perceptible realization of imperceptible forces, a map that deterritorializes, or an instrument of the propagation of light. This accomplished assemblage of architects, urban planners, and philosophers urge us to consider how the ideas of Deleuze and Guattari both organize and derange their architectural visions as they ceaselessly experiment with the very idea of the worlds architecture might be capable of creating.

The challenging and provocative chapters of this timely collection open multiple pathways for exploiting the thought of Deleuze and Guattari in the development of a theory and practice of nomadic architecture within a reconceptualized urban space. An essential contribution to contemporary discourse on the interface of philosophy, politics and the built environment.

Philosophy and architecture have been close neighbors for some time; although the relationship was traditionally understood as the latter borrowing concepts from the former. This unique and timely volume establishes a more bi-directional relationship between practitioners and theorists, who are brought together to analyze the questions and problems of a process that is posed by the Deleuzo-Guattarian image of thought.
