Assemblage

An assemblage, in geology refers to a group of fossils that, appearing together, charachterise a particular stratum.these collections of things or of “heterogenous elements” are things brought together that have particular relations. It is these “collections of things and thier relations that help express some thing. The different elements collected in this assemblage “also include the qualities present (large, poisonous, fine, blinding) and the affects and effectivity of the assemblage: that is not what it is but what it can do ” (Deluze, 78). The technique of assemblage is not merely a collection of elements but speaks greatly about how buildings  function as a whole. Take for example in builidngs specific programs are housed next to each other as a result of thier meaning and relationship to eachother. They are not merely placed near each other but organised to gain a sense of greater meaning from what they are placed by. Thus the assemblage of a element is not merely a collection of spaces its “more than just a space; it has a stake, its stated a claim” (Deluze, 79)

coevolution

The reading on coevolution focuses on the foundation of the cybernetic movement, in this movement focus is placed on the evolutionary systems  and the ways in which they can give us insight in to how our own systems work .  one experiment that wa carried out that was quite interesting is the chameleone paradox , here a chameleone is plaed ina glas box , hwere it can see its entire relcton and its colors are monitored. this control is ste up to see if the reptile will change from one color to another, or basicaly get confused. the writer and other learned individuals predict different outcomes oon what the color changes will be and what they signify. yet in essence the real answer is alla result of contorl factors, such as the reptiles sensitivity to hnages in hue, and what other factors influence the signals. The reptiles response is later compared to our own networked markets where manufacturers will try to rig a cutural mirror to encourage wild fluctuations in the hopes of sellling manystyles of sweaters, in essence the type of market is determined by the quantity and speed of feedback signals.

Communication and information technologies

The estacy of communication

“there is no longer any system of objects” Baudrilard in this statement reffers to the fact that in a certain way in our world all this still exists, these systems of objects, yet in other respects it is all disappearing today the scene and the mirror no longer exist; instead, there is s creen and an network, in place of the reflective trancendence of the mirror and scene, there is a non reflective surface, a suface where operations unfold – a smooth surface. in essence the faustian has given way to the proteinic era of networks. people no longer project themselves onto objects, and the psychological dimension in a sense is vanishing, the body,landscape , time all disappear as scenes.and overall as humans we will have to suffer thisnew state of things, this forced extroversion of all interiority, this forced injection of all exteriority is the final result.

 

 

Technology and Authenticity

The work of art in the age of mechanical production

the focus of this reading is the technological reproduction of a work of art.over the ages art as been reproduced with various reproductive technologies however, even with the most perfect reproduction , the one thing that does stand out is the work of arts existence in the place where it is at the moment. furthermore, technological reproduction as opposed to manual reproduction produced a copy that was autonomous. Benjamin goes through various ways in which a work of art is percieved, and the importance that tradition and religion have on its perception. now more than ever art work is seen for one value , mainly its artistic value its image value. bejamin also explores the represenation of the original in film and the aspect of having an actor portray another person one represenation would be on an on stage setting, and the other type would be the sound film which affords a spectavcle that has never been experienced before as the lights, cameras etc are all out of the feild of view of the spectator.
