Abstract

Abstract : The essay, Archive Agency asserts a new "scenic" by examining the concept of the productive as a fertile and evolutionary space across multiple didactic environments. Technology and the Internet shift and guide our gaze, recalibrating familiar regimes. From 19 th century "prefilmic" acts of virtual travel via a room to an imaginative elsewhere, to the implications of modern post-disciplinary educational models, to the addition of a digital archive within a Master-level design-research curriculum – these environments shape other kinds of interiors and coincidental micro-relationships in the production of meaning.
