I feel that Deleuze has given the perfect example of an architecture that we (subconsciencely or otherwise) strive for. The majority of us try to incorporate some form of curve, fold, or skin into our designs for studio because we know that we are capable of building forms like these now. But why do we? I think that we are trying to make a more appealing architecture, and in order for architecture to be more appealing it must be accepted by our senses as something pleasing. I am unsure why but the form of the curve, that occurs naturally in our environment, has something beautiful about it that I think we want to bring that beauty to our buildings. Although Deleuze's idea gives the five senses to the building I feel as though the principle is the same. He is representing the senses we are trying to appeal to withing the folded, organic, baroque building.
He also says that folds are matter, rather than what a piece of cloth makes. This was interesting because it then gives the ability for anything and everything to become a fold. This idea lets folds exist not only in the physical world but in space and time as well, and can connect all these levels at the same time. This confuses me, but I find the idea facinating. If anyone can elaborate on this I would appreciate it.
