The Art of Light
Laszlo Moholy-Nagy

Moholy-Nagy's educational concept was comprehensive, going far beyond purely artistic training and instead aiming for a fundamental ethical grounding of the social individual in education and design.

The concept of assemblage works on various spatial and temporal scales and can hence be viewed more as an 'ecology' rather than an organism. In this case , I mean ecology not in the sense of environment, nature, pollution and so on, but in the sense of how things, human and otherwise, are imbricated with one another (Morton 2009, 2012).

Assemblages and ecologies that engender an agency that is all about an ability, to change things, and about the possibilities of worldly reconfigurings.

Dolphin and Tuin 2012:55

The task therefore is to educate the contemporary man as an integrator, the new designer able to re-evaluate human needs warped by machine civilisation. 

Moholy-Nagy, Vision in Motion, Chicago 1946

Disjunction and Event/Processual Research : Collage/Constrained Spaces/Spatial Body

Processual Making/Messy Entanglements : Creating sustained flows of engagement resulting in some connections that can occur but not others, working practices that can create a pattern or field of relations/resistance or constraint.

Movement is Material.

Mobility/New Social Assemblages

Ingold/Thrift

Movement creates differences, it resists and perpetuates between human bodies/spatial bodies.

Constrained spaces shaped by the tensions of the environment.

Combined works/conceptual frameworks with research as an integral part of the practice to produce ways of sensing/making ecologies of  knowledge.

Ecology-as-Assemblage

An assemblage is able to retroactively affect its parts.

Human identities and bodies are inherently multiple, relational and dependant on more-than-human presences. 

On Landscape Ontology, Bryant. 2011

The co-existence of such heterogeneous dimensions and demands makes up the 'event.' The event is a sudden intensity generated by the juxtaposition and superimposition of differences. The event tends to exacerbate differences rather than making everything similar.

Agency is about an ability to respond, to change things, about the possibilities of worldly reconfigurations, in this way it enlists non-humans as well as humans.

Human capacity becomes distributed rather than situated in a hegemonic subject-object relationship. Rather it is a result of complex heterogenous entanglements, networks, imbroglio's, assemblages and ecologies. In this perspective, agency is not something possessed solely by humans or for that matter, non-humans.
