PARALOGICAL MACHINES

PARALOGICAL MACHINES

Design through exaptation, bisociation, and chance operations

ByMarcelo Ertorteguy

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Paralogical Machines explores the design of tools, methods, and devices intended to provoke intuition, imagination, and unexpected forms of creative thought beyond conventional rational processes. Developed through architectural design pedagogy, the research draws from artistic and intellectual traditions including Dada and Surrealism, Oulipo, chance operations, combinatorics, lateral thinking, and the productive role of constraints, while extending these questions into an emerging landscape increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence.
