精彩内容 《建筑与废物》这本书中所涉及的一系列我所设计的未建成的作品,是笔者于20世纪90年代中期所开始进行的一系列关于未来建筑思考的展示。起因是伴随我学习外语的小录音机出现了卡带的故障,我试图对其修理的初衷却成为将其变成了废品的行为过程。然而当对这个“废品”进行“解剖”的瞬间,猛然意识到眼前这个“废品”与建筑之间的关联。建筑是时代的产物,建筑反映相应时代判断的本身,表明建筑在进行构思和搭建的过程中眼前已经摆放着时代的“摹本”或“样本”,技术是一个时代的表征,由技术所产生的一系列的结晶体也会瞬间地由于技术的再发展而成为之前技术条件下的废品和垃圾。而所谓建筑反映相应时代的命题也就只能是面对已经完成的结晶体。而不幸的是当你面对这些技术的结晶体时,这些结晶体已经被真正的技术所超越,而建筑所反映的也不过是相应时代的遗弃品。我们这个时代的周边充满了多种结晶体,可这些结晶体对我们来讲还仍然没有企及,或许它们已经成为了时代技术的“垃圾”,但是如同那个曾经给我带来便利的小录音机那样,它也曾经是一个新技术的结晶体。但它在新技术的发展过程下,的确地也已经成为了“废品”和“垃圾”,但是这个“垃圾”却可以转而成为建筑的“摹本”。正是在这样的一种思考的前提下,在我们还在关注着或者不断地将几千年以前的技术的“垃圾”作为我们今天“摹本”的时代,能否让我们关注一下离我们最近的这些“垃圾”所带给我们的新的感受、新的体验和新的视觉是这本书的终极意图,由于每一个过往的结晶体一定曾凝聚过相应时代的尖端技术,从这个意义上说今天的“垃圾”就是明天的传统。 给本书起名叫《建筑与废物》完全是由于一个纠结的过程。“建筑与垃圾”这个名字可能更符合这本书的性格,然而建筑和垃圾的提法引来了诸多的理解上的歧义。而最终采用了现在这本书的命名。我想重申的一点是:我所说的“垃圾”的概念,并不是一个日常生活中所理解的垃圾的意思,是指那些被时代扔掉的并可以从中寻找到视觉含义的“结晶体”要素。在我看来:看似没有用的东西,甚至垃圾,都有可能直接地指向建筑。 序 The book Architecture and Junk touches on a series of unestablished architecture works I designed, which demonstrates a series of contemplation on future architecture I started at the first half of the 1990s. The origin is the action process as I tried in vain to repair a malfunctioning tape recorder that accompanied my foreign language study but only turned it into a damaged junk. But when I was "disassembling" this "junk", I suddenly realized the relation between architecture and this "junk" at hand. Architecture, as product of times, reflects judgment of the respective time itself and indicates that the "prototype" or "sample" of the time is already before one's eyes when designing and constructing the architecture. As technology is the representation of a certain time, a series of crystallized objects resulted from technology will instantaneously turn into junk and rubbish of the previous technology due to further technology development. The statement that architecture reflects respective time is only applicable on crystallized objects already completed. Unfortunately when you are facing such crystallized objects of technology, they are already transcended by real technology, leaving architecture only to reflect derelict of respective time. There are various crystallized objects around us in this age, but they are not within our reach yet, or they have already become "rubbish" of respective technology. However, similar to that small tape recorder that once brought convenience to me, it was once a crystallized object of a new technology then. During the development process of new technology, it indeed became "junk" and "rubbish", yet this "rubbish" can be transformed into "prototype" of architecture. With precondition of such a thinking, while we still pay attention to or keep transforming technology "rubbish" thousands of years ago into our "prototype" today, it is the ultimate intention of this book for us to focus on new feelings, new experience and new vision brought by these "rubbish" most close to us. As each past crystallized object definitely once concentrated cutting-edge technology of respective ages, from this sense, "rubbish" of today is tradition of tomorrow. To give this book the name of Architecture and Junk is purely due to an entangled procedure. The name of “Architecture and Rubbish” may better comply with the nature of this book, but the wording of architecture and rubbish results in many ambiguous meanings in understanding. Therefore this bookis named as it is now. I want to reiterate that my concept of "rubbish", unlike the rubbish commonly weunderstood in daily life, refers to elements of "crystallized objects" discarded by ages and marked withvisual meanings that can be found from within. In my opinion, those objects seemingly of no use, or evenrubbish, may directly point to architecture.
