![]() ![]() as inner montages that lead to further actions or ideas. In mental processes we combine different fragments of previous experiences, memories, interpretations, concepts, etc. pictures, videos), another essential feature of montage techniques is the approach to the immaterial and sensual elements of perception and reflection such as thoughts, languages, imaginations or associations. This section focuses on the image-based and referential process of both the creation and communication of ideas through montage methods.īeside working with material elements (e.g. A design develops through collecting and dealing with ideas, existing buildings, situations, materials, and the balance between presentation and representation. Pictures and visualizations are essential elements in architectural design processes such as in developing and communicating ideas. What are the archives and atlases of montage methods in architecture? How did the resources of montage develop, especially in the age of digitalization? In this section we aim to collect and present rather architecture-specific techniques, to discuss their evolution and importance today as well as future opportunities in producing architecture. The origins and importance of montage in film-making and image editing is well known and has been covered extensively. What role does montage play between historical documentation and future utopian works? The relations, and particularly the differences between collage and montage, can be pointed out and presented in the context of architecture. This section aims to deal with reflections on how montage can be characterized as a technique inherent to architecture and a fundamental basis of architectural practice and knowledge. Contributions are welcomed to either focus on the overarching theme or to address one or more of the following aspects: In order to show and classify the wide diversity in this edition, the following sections are explored. Nevertheless, visual contributions require a linguistic embedding in order to incorporate the background, genesis, and reflection of these works to the contribution. In this case, the communicative power is considered to be equal to that of textual language. Contributors are thus welcomed to assemble observations in the mode of visual contributions (documentations or any other form of notation). In addition to full paper contributions, this call is explicitly open and unrestricted concerning the methods of practice-related investigations and research. ![]() foremost Architecture and Urban Design, Photography and Writing, but also Philosophy, Sociology, and other fields – to widen the perspective on montage in the architectural discourse. This issue’s overarching objective is to bring together investigations from different disciplines – i.e. We invite theorists and practitioners from different disciplines to reflect upon various aspects of »Montage in Architecture« and to present their specific observations gained in research, practice, or teaching. This call invites contributions that address the ✾ssentials of Montage in Architecture« from the perspectives of perceiving and reflecting, communicating, designing, and making in or around the discipline of architecture. We aim to conduct a discourse that provides a comprehensive collection of theories, methods, and visions to highlight the relevance of montage for visual and spatial practices as well as for knowledge production in architecture. As the term montage signifies different actions of editing, layering, and producing in the context of visual arts, the process of montage is also moving into the focus of attention in the context of architecture. In contrast to the collage, in which the set pieces are clearly separated from each other, montage is characterized by appropriation and superimposition of both material and immaterial resources, including a multi-sensory technique in the perception, design, and communication of architecture. The original properties of the mounted elements in the new composition remain identifiable, while the cuts and transitions between them are blurred. Montage is a methodological process of collecting, arranging, and assembling heterogeneous resources or inserting them into an existing situation in such a way, that something ›new‹ is created. ![]()
