![]() Spacing produces another interstitial condition. “In the context of architecture, spacing as opposed to forming begins to suggest a possible figure/figure relationship, which in turn suggests a new possibility for the interstitial. Spacing in architecture is opposed to forming/formal, just like Deleuze’s figural is opposed to the figurative. In other words, spacing is the implied, affective reading that a subject can make within the mental and corporeal architecture, not limiting itself to merely meandering through it. Derrida distinguishes writing from architectural writing, claiming that the latter involves a condition of creative reading that did not previously exist. “Spacing”/“espacement”/“espaciamiento” is a term defined by the philosopher Jacques Derrida in reference to writing. ![]() Diagrams are no longer simply a strategic-informative technique that represents, they have become a technique or poetic operation that, in addition to representing, also presents and evokes. Functioning as hypertexts and creative and affective interfaces between the human imagination and architectural form, they propose a new type of reality in a permanent becoming, integrating both order and chaos, intention and the unexpected, mechanical and organic, real and virtual. Alluding to the notions of diagrams, machinic and figural of Deleuze and Guattari, these diagrams are constituted as strategic-communicative-productive intermediate matrix-space among architecture, the architect and the digital machine, and between architecture and other disciplinary fields. In recent decades, digital diagrams have taken on a greater role in architectural projects, permitting, in terms of graphic prefigurative artifacts, other creative, relational and perceptive possibilities in the process of conceiving and representing architecture, which is increasingly focused on topics of complexity, transformation, flexibility, versatility, interaction, imprecision, virtuality, etc.
