Abstract(s)
A pesquisa tenta afirmar a importância de uma prática de projecto que configure um contraponto à hegemonia actual das ferramentas digitais. Argumentamos que estas trabalham o projecto essencialmente pelo seu carácter visual e através de valores definidos em extensão - quantitativos e mensuráveis. Pensamos que estas questões serão potencialmente limitadoras do alcance criativo do projecto e poderão ser procedentes de um desligamento deste em relação ao corpo.
O corpo da nossa argumentação será assim pensado como um corpo em que sensação e pensamento se completam. Estará estruturado em parte no pensamento de Hermann Schmitz, como “Leib” - corpo afectivo -, em contraste a “Korper” - corpo biológico. O pensamento, a capacidade de conceptualizar, imaginar e raciocinar, não serão actividades de uma mente sem corpo – de índole Cartesiana.
O diagrama intensivo será uma forma possível de manifestação projectual de uma unidade entre sensação e pensamento, intuição e racionalidade, e deste modo, a afirmação de um corpo afectivo que através da própria experiência se torna o agente do projecto. Poderá deste modo expressar o desenvolvimento e a transformação inerentes a um processo projectual que integra capacidade pré-reflexiva e pensamento estruturado.
Como ferramenta de projecto, o diagrama intensivo situa-se no âmbito do desenho, mas transporta consigo igualmente a capacidade diagramática de operacionalizar elementos da realidade e do projeto.
Os diagramas intensivos poderão assim criar a possibilidade que a experiência criativa possa ser integrada com o pensamento reflectido como um todo, e como parte do desenvolvimento projectual. Neste processo, valores intensivos - intuitivos - poderão ser transformados em extensão através do desenho diagramático.
Os momentos chave de passagem de elementos de carácter intensivo a extensivo, constituirão “planaltos”, na nossa apropriação de conceitos de Gilles Deleuze e Felix Guattari.
O foco específico da nossa pesquisa estará na forma particular como a experiência da atmosfera no âmbito do diagrama intensivo tem consequências no modo como o projectista tem uma percepção sensorial do espaço que projecta, por um lado, e como por outro a atmosfera lhe permite transferir certas qualidades para o objecto em si mesmo.
A operacionalização da experiência da atmosfera no diagrama intensivo poderá assim constituir uma ferramenta relevante como possibilidade de enriquecimento das práticas contemporâneas de criação de projecto.
The research tries to assert the importance of a design practice that sets a counterpoint to the current hegemony of digital tools. We argue that these address mainly a visual character and enable projectual values defined in extension - quantitative and measurable. We think that these issues will potentially be limiting to the creative reach of the design practice - and that might arise from a disconnection from the body. The body of our argument will be thought of as the body in which sensation and thought complement each other as a whole. It is structured in the thought of Hermann Schmitz, as “Leib” - affective body - in contrast to “Korper” - biological body. Thought, the ability to conceptualise, imagine and reason, will thus not be an activity of a mind without a body - of a Cartesian nature. The intensive diagram will be a possible form of a projectual manifestation of a unity between sensation and thought, intuition and rationality, and of an affective body that through experience becomes the agent of project itself. It will thus be able to express the development and transformation inherent to a process that integrates pre-reflexive capacity and structured thought. As a design tool, the intensive diagram is positioned within the scope of drawing, but also carries the diagrammatic capacity to operationalise elements of reality and of design. Intensive diagrams may thus create the possibility that the creative experience might be integrated with reflective thinking as part of projectual development. Within this process, intensive - intuitive -, values might be transformed into extension. The key moments of passage from intensive to extensive elements will constitute “plateaus”, in our appropriation of concepts by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari. The specific research focus is set on the particular way the experience of atmosphere within the intensive diagram has consequences on the way the designer has a sensorial perception of the space he designs, on the one hand, and on the other, how the same experience allows him to transfer certain qualities to the design object. The operationalization of the experience of atmosphere within the intensive diagram might consequently establish a relevant tool for the enrichment of contemporary creative practices.
