Temporal relay in discussing the cinematic encounters with architecture

Abstract

Debating the complexities of the relationship between space, time and images, have evolved over the paradigmatic change of perception of urban space toward a movement perspective, and encompassed significant changes in the way we see and produce space. In this paper I will point out the modalities of architectural production that break the design process tradition, as it turned out as unable to support time-based modes of reception of architectural and urban ideas. A discursive analysis of relations between architectural and cinematic space will be shown as a sample which problematizes the issue of time in an altered reality of the recorded material. I will deal with the methodological and theoretical analysis of the relations between the phenomenon of space, time and movement, with the intention to show how cinematic device utilizes its own unique features to make visible movements, to articulate time and interpret linear and the non-linear projection of sequence between cinematic space and real architectural space. As a field of my research, I will take the analogy from the practice of film montage, architectural experiment and multi-screen installation.
