The Animistic Moment. Clarice Lispector, Louis Kahn and a reassembling of materialities
Abstract
How can agency be delegated to things as a productive strategy in the context of making? Let us consider two insightful examples: the first one provided by Clarice Lispector, in particular her novels The Passion According to G.H. (1964) A Breath of Life (posthumous and incomplete); the second comes from Louis Kahn and his work on the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) in Ahmedabad (Srivastava 2009).
