Foreword

Psyche is an apparatus, that apparatus is extended, and space is but a projection of that extension. If psyche is spatial, it puts it within the curtilage of architecture. Any project that seeks to bring together two disciplines that are not commonly regarded as already together, with the aim of producing an expanded discourse, must satisfy a number of conditions. There must be an internal affinity between the disciplines that makes putting them together compelling; there must be an internal potentiality that appears in the conjoined space made by their overlap. And if it is to survive in the world of institutions, in which everything is subjected to the scrutiny of the ego and the profit motive, it must have a demonstrable benefit to the world.
