| Abstract |
The keyword to solve Deleuze's folding thought is the virtual. It contains all relations changing endlessly by differences as it is refusing the transcendental and absolute center but maintaining consistency. It makes it possible for the new approaching methods to escape from the previous established ones. It opens the way expressing the immanent life and the variety as endless differences. The architecture that always intensifies the virtual can be unfolded if the folding thought can be architecturally actualized. So, this paper interpret with the digital form making languages and the digital form transforming methods as diagrams which Peter Eisenman used it in his works on the basis of the Deleuze's folding thought. Furthermore, it propose the new digital form creating methods that can express fold's thought and that are excluded in Eisenman's methods. The suggested digital form creating methods can be thought as the most proper ones of making an architectural form closer to Deleuze's folding thought. These methods showed possibilities that they transform the digital design concepts combined with the contemporary architectural theory based on Deleuze into architecture. |
