plagiarismisnecessary: Iannis Xenakis - Sketch of the Diatope (1978-79) ‘As opposed to the tectonic vision of architecture as the legible sign of construction - which is intended to resist any potential status as either commodity or cultural speculation - a diagrammatic practice (flowing around obstacles yet resisting nothing) multiplies signifying processes (technological as well as linguistic) within a plenum of matter, recognizing signs as complicit in the construction of specific social machines. The role of the architect in this model is dissipated, as he or she becomes an organizer and channeller of information, since rather than being limited to decidedly vertical - the control and resistance of gravity, a calculation of statics and load - “forces” emerge as horizontal and nonspecific (economic, political, cultural, local and global). And it is by means of the diagram that these new matters ans activities - along with their diverse ecologies and multiplicities - can be made visible and related…A diagrammatic practice exposes the conditions and activates the opportunities implicit in recognizing that the real is already a site of the virtual.’ R.E. Somol - Urbanism without Architecture (1999)

“Liveplasma is a music and movie visualization app that aims to help you discover other musicians or movies you might enjoy. Type in the name of a band, artist, movie, director or actor and liveplasma will show you related people, bands or movies” This type of product might indicate that advertisers are becoming interested in marketing the process of discovering products rather than the products themselves.  In an age where an increasing number of transactions occur via the internet, directing and catering to one’s experience of purchasing and discovering products on the web might be the key to controlling this new and rapidly evolving market place.
