事件紀錄器

Abstract

摘要，

建築是一部事件記錄器，承載著過去到今日而凝結成為明日的記憶堆疊。就像是被運用在航空器上的黑盒子以供遭遇事故後的還原與調查。建築總是反應當時的文化 政治 經濟 或科技演變 。因此設計從來不是由一個單獨的事件所貫徹, 更不是個人計畫或空想的直接實現, 而是從各種可見與不可見的、矛盾與協調的力量中妥協與適應的結果。建築的理論與實踐是記錄時代的累積。活在當代的我們對現代建築理解不應該只是停留在事件被記錄下的瞬間, 而是利用對過去的理解來進一步的對當下進行批判和對未來提出見解。換句話說, 設計是對過去理解並成為一種創造的能量，憑藉著設計者的解讀與意志，完成從無至有的一種過程。因此我們可以說每次設計的呈現都是一次事件記錄, 分析出那些被影藏在事件與時間下的元素,並將他們再一次的凝結在新的建築設計中。

Architecture is an event recorder, recording the history from when it begins till its most recent day and eventually turning into an accumulation of memory. It is similar to the black box used in aviation so as to the investigate aftermath. The way an architecture performs could reflect the movement or change of culture, economics, politics or technology at the time people live in. Hence, an architecture design standing is not caused by single matter, nor an individual fantasy. Instead, it is a consequence neutralizing different contrasts and contradictions. Architectural theory and practice never stop evolving and must move with times because it helps to create the times. As living in the contemporary age, we should not stay on looking back, but take advantage of those happened events as a solid foundation to criticize our environment and provide new visions for our society. In other words, design is the understanding the past, which is the power and made of a designer’s vision. To sum up, I see every project as an event recorders from which those critical elements would be extracted and reconstructed. Then, they are given a new life as an architecture.
