This collection of 15 essays looks critically at how Deleuze challenges architecture as a discipline, how architecture contributes to philosophy and how we can come to understand the complex politics of space of our increasingly networked world. The contributors are a team of international, interdisciplinary contributors, with essays from John Rajchman, Elizabeth Grosz and Brian Massumi. Since the 1980s, Deleuze’s philosophy has fuelled a generation of architectural thinking, and can be seen in the design of a global range of contemporary built environments. His work has also alerted architecture to crucial ecological, political and social problems that the discipline needs to reconcile.
Hélène Frichot is Assistant Professor in Critical Studies in Architecture, KTH School of Architecture and the Built Environment, Stockholm, Sweden. She has co-curated the Architecture+Philosophy public lecture series in Melbourne, Australia (http://architecture.testpattern.com.au) since 2005. Between 2004-2011 she held an academic position in the School of Architecture and Design, RMIT University. While her first discipline is architecture, she holds a PhD in philosophy from the University of Sydney (2004). Dr Stephen Loo is Professor of Architecture in the School of Architecture & Design, University of Tasmania, Australia. He has published widely on language, affect and the biophilosophy of the contemporary subject, which includes ethico-aesthetic models for human action, posthumanist ethics and experimental digital thinking. His current research project concerns the connections between ethics, psychoanalysis and the space of the entomological imagination. He has a PhD from the University of Sydney on the ontology of architectural theory through the relations between Heideggerian and Deleuzian thought.
