Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The course is about the paper-based design media of early modern architecture and their morphological conquences as theorized by Robin Evans, Mario Carpo and others. The relevant theories will be put to test in a series of case studies ranging from Raphael's so-called letter to Leo X. to Borromini's use of 1:1 models.

Assessment and permitted materials

Participation in discussions, one oral presentation and, most important of all, an art historical paper (of 25 pages meeting common art historical standards). All means of scholarly research are welcome, while there is, of course, a ban on plagiarism.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Term paper, oral presentation, active participation are required. The overall grade results primarily from the paper, but the oral presentation und particiaption in the course can be very important, especially if the the quality of the paper is ambigous ("between two grades").

Examination topics

This is a seminar, don't watch out for exams.

Reading list

Als Einstimmung auf die LV bietet sich an die Lektüre von Mario Carpos Buch "Alphabet und Algorithmus: Wie das Digitale die Architektur herausfordert" (Bielefeld 2011). Weitere Literaturhinweise werden bei der Vorbesprechung in Papierform gegeben.
