Kazi, O., 2009. Architecture as a
Dissident Practice: An Interview with Diller Scofidio + Renfro. Architectural
Design, 79(1), pp.56–59.
An interdisciplinary firm straddling architecture, urban design,
visual arts and the performing arts
It captures the erratic trajectory the firm has been pursuing, the
constant shifting of scales of their projects, the ease with which they move
between architecture and art
Toyed with both the physical and conceptual limits of architecture.
In a series of experiments with art electronic media installations, set deigns
for the theater, and buildings, Diller and Scofidio have explored and tested
the boundaries of cultural and architectural conventions
This understanding of architecture’s fundamental heteronomy is at
the core of DS + R’s research
Post modernism in a different sense, one which engages a lot of
thinking from cultural studies and other fields
Gendered space, politics of space
Time and movement “When you stop moving time flattens” One has to
accept that there is more to architecture than space making: architecture is
event-making, its always thinking about perception, and space, use,
choreography, setting up relations etc
“Each one of our theatre pieces is
explicitly about conventions of the stage- stage space, storytelling, fiction,
nonfiction
