Summary:
In Becoming Beside Ourselves, the renowed cultural theorist and mathematician Brian Rotman turns his attention to alphabetic writing or the inscription of spoken language. Contending that all media configure what they mediate, he maintains that alphabetic writing has long served as the West's dominant cognitive technology. Its logic and limitations have shaped thought and affect from its inception until the present. Now its grip on Western consciousness is giving way to virtual technologies and networked media, which are reconfiguring human subjectivity just as alphabetic texts have done for millenia. Brian Rotman is Distinguished Humanities Professor in the Department of Comparative Studies at Ohio University.

Besides providing space for worship, each of the projects conveys innovative architectural approaches to express sacredness: classics like Jørn Utzon’s Bagsværd Church, Seema Malaka by Geoffery Bawa, and Lina Bo Bardi’s Church of the Holy Spirit.

Besides his dedication to humanitarian efforts, Ban’s interest in materials expresses his minimalist ideology, one that often leads him to choose existing materials and techniques over state-of-the-art solutions.
