May 6, May 5, The symmetry between the built and the unbuilt is Fig. The ground as defining datum of the built and the unbuilt is undermined and upturned: In the joint OMA, XDGA, and One Architec- ture proposal for Les Halles Paris, the opposition between the raw and the cooked, the natural and the fabricated, is entirely de- stabilized fig.

The natural and the fabricated are synthesized: In the rhizomatic folding of Les Halles, the history of the city is taken as the raw material of the future. The lecture follows a scalar and conceptual rather than chronological development. But the apparent drift from the delimita- tion to the complication of the raw and the cooked, the built and the unbuilt, should not be understood as constituting a temporal advance. This repertoire of hybrid and synthetic po- sitions is already available within the force-field established by the poles of nature and artifice.

The cat- egorical tints of nature and artifice have lost any discernible value. Less obvious is that within this release strategies of suspension already appear. Architectural composition is usually associated with grounding, methodically arranging an assemblage of elements in place through various organizing constructs.

Rather than arrange, the IOC project absorbs irreducible aspects of the context and the required elements of the brief with a single scan of the site fig. Faced with the irreconcilable dilemma of expanding a private institution into public parkland, XDGA accept the paradox by sweeping the one into the other: a portion of the park and the historic villa, their particulars and potentials, are, sandwiched beneath a flatbed lid, instantly suspended in an evenly lit transparent vitrine.

The question of the raw and the cooked, no longer a preoccupation with the built and the unbuilt, becomes less about the precise delineation of the site than the recomposition of specific material ingredients. The practice of scanning, rather than figuring against a projected datum, models internal relationships. It takes all relationships —between and within humans, humans and things, things and things…— to be a manifold of interrelationships.

It abandons that conception of design which oscillates between the abstract, universal formulation of the autonomous object and its realization in place. The designer, no longer a demiurgic disposition, becomes a subject immanent with their object, observing and motivating the rearrangement and transmutation of extant conditions.

It is not our contention that XDGA fully abandon them- selves to the material consequences of their approach. Other, generally younger, practices are more willing to absolve themselves in the eco- logical, perceptual, and affective potentials of material engagement After the Raw and the Cooked RA 20 49 Moreover, those of the descendent generation are more likely to equip themselves with spectral prosthetics, such as lidar, and digital photog- raphy, printing, and fabrication, that enmesh the contemporary designer in virtual clouds as fertile soil for the imagination.

Nevertheless, we do suggest the work of XDGA reaches this threshold. The aforementioned apertures of the Sint-Lucas art studios perhaps come closest. And, pre- cisely because it is on the cusp of an evaporating nature and the loss of a representational ground, certain latent and potential transformations are, at least for us, all the more redolent. Onto its site by the canal, the Oude Dokken Old Docks School trawls up the catch of contemporary elementary pedagogy: the buoys, life rafts, and sustenance, but also the untold discoveries, of a pro- gram that is at once institution, nursery, and playground.

In reefs of ludic visions, XDGA imagine a school of effervescent children. Pools, fountains, slides, shoals, ramps, rushes, and colorful bubble balls hover in an open aquarium, microcosm of the scholastic world. The project announces its willful departure from traditionally grounded institutions like an over- turned terrarium.

Clumps of colorfully vegetated earth remain appended to some of its theatrical elements. In this portmanteau we glimpse the architectural corner of a future universe. For these children, we imagine, traditional narratives of order and assuredness have been suspended. The next generation Fig. But, even if we revise the labels or strip them from our classificatory file cabinets, the outline of the gridded net persists, per- haps always seared, on our retinas.

There might be an unmooring on trial in the old docks, but harboring seems to remain. At the horizon of the posthumanist future we encounter an anthropocentric past. In this remarkable act, we witness an extraordinary dis- solution of categories. While this line shows no marked difference as it courses back and forth from old to new, despite their destined contiguity, the figure of the old museum and its newly saturated ground each stubbornly maintain their consistency.

In the open field each pixel opens onto those surrounding it. In the original body-like plan, limited openings control circulation. The stricter regimentation of the corpuscular narrative, with its anthropocentric familiarity and comfort, liquefies in the post-humanist field, as the historical corpus is incrementally wormed away. Like Gulliver, we apprehend ourselves pinned, like a chalk outline, to the ground.

Some suppose we should just let ourselves go. But, realizing ourselves tumbling with and into rocks and robots, perhaps the ever-finer grids, nets, and frameworks by which we flatten, pixelate, and voxelate our irreducible materiality might be understood, not as the means by which we sort and fix, but rather the way in which we engage and search the increasingly complex stream of our earthly becoming.

X-ray log scanning, for example, is already used in forestry: trees are scanned prior to felling, and the cutting of the boards is customized for each trunk to minimize waste. The scan is discarded by the sawmill after the planks are sold, but there is no reason not to envisage a full design-to-delivery workflow, in this case extended to include the natural production of the source material —from the forest to the end-product, perhaps from the day the tree is planted which would once again curiously emulate ancestral practices of our pre-industrial past.

Each tree could then be felled for a specific task: a perfect one-to-one match of supply and demand that would generate economies without the need for scale —which is what digital technologies typically do when they are used the right way. Likewise, variable property materials can now be designed and fabricated at previously unimaginable levels or resolution, includ- ing concrete, which can be extruded and laid by nozzles on robotic arms, so each volumetric unit of material can be made different from all the others.

Design can now proceed, not with crude abstractions, but intimately, with the specific and peculiar tendencies of the materials that compose its site, program, and body. Chemistry is unmerciful. But we must become one with that uproarious sticky granularity jamming in our marmalade skies. As every chef knows, in the matter of the raw and the cooked, the pressing issue is the irreversibility of time.
