Autistic culture: The architectural therap

Binary logic can be described as one response to humanity's search for security from space and time. The primary means of this algorithmic 'solution' is through the reduction of technology (techne) to a 'techno-logic'---a logic of instrumentalized means and ends that transmits through culture in such a way that the indeterminacy of our participatory role in the world becomes encompassed by meta-narratives rather than involvement in the communicative space of culture. As I will reveal, these discursively-generated narratives persist through the thoroughly technologically-oriented spectacle that is Autistic Culture. Autistic Culture reveals genetic biases of agency toward auto-poiesis, facilitated by instrumentalized technology. I will argue that Autistic Culture is a condition which can most effectively be mediated through architecture; through its role of establish 1ng'spontaneous' heuristic fictions as a basis for revealing moral ontologies.;The intervention of a Laboratory for Human Prosthetics and Virtual Interfaces in the Lower Main of Montreal (St. Laurent Boulevard), in the context of those at the forefront of technological development, to coincide with the development of the area into an arts and cultural district is seen to be most apt as an Architectural Therapy to negotiate Autistic Culture, and is manifested by means of a twofold process; by one which engages the 'local technology' of its inhabitants, as a means of developing a relationality; and by another which deliberately engages their autistic tendencies, as a means of contrasting 'extension' with quotidian experience.
