Im Rahmen der aktuellen Diskussion zur asthetischen und kulturellen Bildung gehen Autorinnen und Autoren unterschiedlicher kulturwissenschaftlicher Disziplinen der Frage nach, was asthetische Erfahrungen sind. Indem sie interdisziplinar sowie asthetisch-transformatorisch arbeiten, koennen sie eroertern, wie sich etwas derart Fluchtiges und der Subjektivitat Verhaftetes empirisch fassen und in Bildungsinstitutionen initiieren und vermitteln lasst. In den Projekten verlassen die Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer den gewohnten Lernort, ubersetzen Materialien in Sprache und Schrift, Texte in Film oder Literatur in Tanz oder werden dazu angehalten, ihre eigenen Wahrnehmungsmuster zu hinterfragen.

This book deals with the critical nature and crucial role of architectural drawings. A manual which is essentially not a manual; it is an elucidation of an elegant manner for practising architecture. Organized around eleven exercises, the book does not emphasize speed, nor incorporate many timesaving tricks typical of drawing books, but rather proposes a slow, meditative process for construing drawings and for drawing constructing thoughts. This is an indispensable reference text and an effective textbook for students seeking to advance their appreciation of the nature and exercise of architectural drawings.
