[RE] Program obsolescence, dissection and fragments of other architectures

Abstract

Architecture is implicitly within the productive field of economic systems, and obsolescence within this context is defined as devaluation. Obsolescence in the discipline has been a rarely recurring theme since the focus is more on the act of creation. This text seeks to discuss how the final stages associated with the deterioration of a work can be the beginnings of others, how some references from art and architecture give us glimpses into the project of re-programming obsolescence as a design attribute.
