Abstract

This paper originates from a text that was developed in close relation to one of my works of art, with the title Audience point of view. Like this work, my text is an argument for a profound change in attitude concerning mimetic representation, where neglected associations in every day life provide a resource in planning of society and its design processes. This change embraces a higher sensitivity towards small spaces and events that are going on in a minor scale. My opinion is that the architectural model by this gets a new meaning. It is no longer just a mockup, second to what might be called real architecture. It is central in several types of design processes.
