Interprets architecture theory through the lens of Continental philosophyDrawing on a range of philosophical texts, Andrej Radman brings together a collection of 11 of his essays, published over the last decade, to show that when a society manipulates its matter it is not a reflection of culture; it is culture. To speak of ecologies of architecture is to break with judgement for experience. As Gilles Deleuze put it in his book on Nietzsche, it is not about justification, 'but a different way of feeling: another sensibility'. If to think differently we have to feel differently, then the design of the built environment has no other purpose but to transform us. While engineering is solution-oriented, architecture stays with the problem so as to tease out a creative potential.
Andrej Radman is Assistant Professor of Architecture at Delft University of Technology. He is a licensed and award-winning architect and has contributed to numerous academic publications including Deleuze and Architecture (EUP, 2013). He is co-editor of Critical and Clinical Cartographies: Architecture, Robotics, Medicine, Philosophy (EUP, 2017). Rosi Braidotti is a Distinguished University Professor Emerita at Utrecht University in the Netherlands and Honorary Professor at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. She is a feminist Continental philosopher and she holds degrees in philosophy from the ANU and the Sorbonne and Honorary Degrees from Helsinki, (2007) and Linkoping (2013). She is an Honorary Fellow of the Australian Academy of the Humanities (FAHA) and also a Member of the Academia Europaea. In 2022 she received the Humboldt Research Award for life-long contribution to scholarship.
