vittoria says: "there are days when a table, or chair, or book, or a man are all the same."*
is architecture a projection of our desires or are our desires a projection of architecture? looking at godard and loos. both project their own desires: godard, in "le mepris", destroying the line that separates film and reality using brigitte bardot's body, and projecting his own life on to the malaparte house; loos, in the josephine baker house, desiring her body, projecting, thinking of her moving, dancing in space. in both cases, there is a fragmented space where each fragment can be disparate, and at the same time in an oblique allusion, an implied or indirect cross-reference.
Form, when the body loses its corporeality; it evaporates, changes, and morphs, becomes Desire.
