    The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute University of Pittsburgh, College of General Studies Architecture in the PostModern Era Summer Semester 2017 (Friday 1-2:30pm) Lawrence Hall (Room 104) Instructor: Matthew Schlueb Lecture 2 (2017.07.07): An introduction to the work of Peter Eisenman and his influence on post modern architecture Leitmotifs: Cardboard Architecture: smooth surfaces with flush detailing, insubstantiality of structure, unloading architecture of all function and semantic associations, using columns, walls, beams as modeled in cardboard with thin planar surfaces and layers. Topology: geometric and structure of architectural form, as opposed to the relationship of form to function or form to meaning, rather a set of formal relationships that is the result of the inherent logic of the forms themselves. Deconstruction: anti-form, anti-hierarchy, anti-structure, an architecture that is no longer closed, identifiable, specific field, one cannot extract a technique, method or system of architectural rules from deconstruction. In-Between: negative space resulting from positive form, positive space resulting from negative form, external form driven by the contextual site, with building infilling the in-between space defined by physical and metaphysical structures adjacent. Heterogenous Space: a non-supporting column serves some other function, as signifier dependent on context, articulated as such a column or series of columns divide and differentiate space, no longer homogenous. Partis pris: Redundancy: overlay and interaction of two simultaneous systems, intended to exemplify the logic inherent in a redundant second formal structure, no longer functional in relation to the first, rather providing a potential area of new meaning. Autonomous object: generated by a design process, a set of rules resulting in the literary reading of self-organizing architectural form and space, with a syntax inherent within the geometry of the object, not created by the reader.
