A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This article reports on a master class convened by the Centre for Creative Arts, La Trobe University, in October 2012. It describes a performative approach to the encouragement of participants to find common ground between their different research fields. Using a tool-kit of concepts (intermundium, fit, and template), the leader fostered a new genealogy of hybrid ideations that progressively materialised the qualitative experience of ambience. Ambience emerges as an accumulation of marginal interests emarginated to find their common ground. It is suggested that the rhapsodic style of pedagogy described here has particular relevance to an enlarged pedagogy of architectural design, one able to articulate the ambient properties of human groups and physical arrangements. Exploring another, institutional margin, the dramaturgical nature of the teaching technique suggests a way of turning the institution inside-out.
