課程描述
研究的目的是為了獲得知識。「建築理論」這門課程的目的在於建立起「獨立研究」（independent research）的習慣。研究即是有系統、有目的性地回顧已知的事物，進而在整合的過程中產生新的知識。設計行為即是一個知識生產的過程。建築設計可以說是「行動中的反思」（reflection-in-action），每一位建築師在設計過程中，不時反芻已知，同時探索未知。也可以說從第一堂設計課開始，我們便已經開始從事建築知識的生產。然而在建築也不只是藝術領域，也包含了自然科學與人文學科，不同領域的知識生產各有不同的傳統，這樣的分歧再加上所謂基礎學科與應用科學的分離，在現代性計畫的社會分工體系下，一直難以獲得整合。如此的分離在「建築作為風格史」的偏見下愈顯嚴重：一旦建築成為形式樣本的線性演化，我們便無法顧及角落中的常民生活，以及不同區域所獨有的現代性。
建築理論的角色便在於提供對話的界面，讓建築師不只能夠論述他長期訓練下的專長（亦即：不同形式、內容、材料與分析視角的整合），更能和社會學、人類學、生態學、地理學等不同領域交互影響。在生產性人工智慧興起的年代，熟悉理論讓我們能夠「問對的問題」，才能藉由「提示」（prompt）在形不同的視角之間靈活轉換，將未來的創新建立在過去的理解。有鑑於此，這門課將採取專題討論（seminar）與演講（lecture）雙軌並行的方式，希望能在交叉激盪中產生出理解，進而準備好未來執業生涯中更深刻的知識生產。Course description
The purpose of research is to gain knowledge. The purpose of the course "Architectural Theory" is to establish the habit of "independent research". Research is a systematic and purposeful review of known things, and then generates new knowledge in the process of integration. Design behavior is a process of knowledge production. Architectural design can be said to be "reflection-in-action". During the design process, every architect ruminates on the known and explores the unknown from time to time. It can also be said that from the first design class, we have already begun to engage in the production of architectural knowledge. However, architecture is not only an art field, but also includes natural sciences and humanities. Different fields of knowledge production have different traditions. Such differences, coupled with the separation of the so-called basic disciplines and applied sciences, have played a vital role in the modernity project. Under the social division of labor system, it has been difficult to achieve integration. Such separation becomes more serious under the prejudice of "architecture as a history of style": once architecture becomes a linear evolution of formal samples, we cannot take into account the ordinary people's lives in the corner and the unique modernity of different regions.
The role of architectural theory is to provide a dialogue interface, allowing the architect not only to discuss his long-term training expertise (that is: the integration of different forms, contents, materials and analytical perspectives), but also to communicate with sociology, anthropology, ecology Interactive influences in different fields such as science and geography. In the era of the rise of productive artificial intelligence, familiarity with theory allows us to "ask the right questions", flexibly switch between different perspectives through "prompts", and build future innovations on past understandings. In view of this, this course will adopt a dual-track approach of seminars and lectures, hoping to generate understanding through cross-fertilization and thus prepare for more profound knowledge production in future professional careers.
本課程主要講授內容大致分為兩部份：
(一) 建築意義之辯證：包含「第一章：從理型美學到機械美學之辯證」及「第二章：建築典範與範型移轉之思辯」兩關鍵議題之探討。
(二) 詮釋本質的模型：包含「第三章：現象本質意義之個人再詮釋學」、「第四章：場所感知溝通模式與建築語用自由度」及「第五章：意識形態與建築師之社會角色定位」等三關鍵議題之探討。
由前述兩部份有關建築意義與本質之辯證與詮釋模型之探索，期能建立一較嚴謹之建築論述內涵。
The main teaching content of this course is roughly divided into two parts:
(1) Dialectics of architectural significance: including the discussion of two key topics: "Chapter 1: Dialectics from rational aesthetics to mechanical aesthetics" and "Chapter 2: Thoughts on architectural paradigms and paradigm transfer".
(2) Model of the essence of interpretation: including "Chapter 3: Personal Re-Hermeneutics of the Essential Meaning of Phenomenon", "Chapter 4: Communication Mode of Place Perception and Architectural Pragmatic Freedom" and "Chapter 5: Ideology and Architecture Discussion on three key issues including "Teacher's Social Role Positioning".
Through the exploration of the dialectics and interpretation models of the meaning and essence of architecture in the two parts mentioned above, it is expected that a more rigorous architectural discussion connotation can be established.
