DRUGG Conference at UCL-Diagrams and their uses
-diagrams and allegory
-geometric vs pictorial
- reductive vs additive
- science vs art- can be haptic, material, functional and generative
- can create a new reality with images, processes and materials to become a force in itself
Commonalities of diagrams:
- pedagogical or instructional
- give form to abstract concepts
- make use of a conventional body of signs
- always point to something else
- connect separate elements to make a whole, to join form and content
Investigate a map as a diagram
Best bets:
John Mallarkey - Thinking in Diagrams
Deleuze- on the diagrams in Bacons work- The Logic of Sensation- suggests something yet to come
