Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

The aim of this course is to decipher and reveal the architectural tectonics that establish spatiality and atmosphere in the uncanny field of drawing and representation, shifting from actualization to virtuality, through the fictional environments of different disciplines, and to open up to the creation process of spatial atmospheric becoming by being involved in the dynamics of becoming with the emerging spatial tectonics. The secondary aim of the course is to problematize the relationality of criticism and creativity in the context of theoretical approaches such as managementality in spatial atmosphere creation, unconscious/subconscious imaginations, post-human hybridization processes and starting from the middle field.

Course Content:

When we look at the dictionary meaning of the word 'fiction', which derives from the act of constituting, we can see that it is "thought, theoretical research that does not go into practice, but only aims to know and explain; the expressions "speculation" and "a work consisting of unreal events and heroes" are also encountered. Space-constituting practices, on the other hand, can reveal events by invoking virtual spaces that trigger perhaps the most critical and creative possibilities in architecture and interior architecture studies. Within the scope of the course, film, text and composition fictions that do not settle into the linearity of history are analyzed and dismantled in the context of understanding and revealing their spatial architectonics. The tectonics revealed are subjected to a process of becoming in a speculative spatial fiction by giving meaning to the subject's potential to become an object and the object's potential to become a subject. In the middle area reached, students are expected to represent their own atmospheric spatiality.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Learning to imagine in the speculative field of spatiality.
2) Gaining the ability to separate the perception of space at different scales into its components by recognizing the visible and invisible interior architecture and urban tectonics of the concept of atmosphere.
3) Ability to include mutual and simultaneous spatial dialogues in the fields of criticism and creativity to becoming process.
4) Being able to give meaning to the atmospheric equivalents of philosophical concepts such as 'posthuman, hybridization, becoming body without organs, deterritorialization, becoming-grab, desiring machines, virtual field and actualization' while constittuting spatiality.
5) İnşa edilmeyen, yönetilemeyen, öngörülemeyen ve/veya bilinemeyen mimari temsilin mekansallığı içindeki olanaklar alanını tasarlayabilme
6) Ability to structure spatial atmospheric transcriptions and translations on the slippery ground of dreaming.
