Designing the Uncanny: Architectural Form and Artificial Imagination
Pirari G., Battelli C., REIA. Revista Europea de Investigation en Architectura 2025 Vol. 26 P. 18–38
This paper investigates the relationship between artificial intelligence and architectural imagination by examining the uncanny dimension (Freud, Vidler) inherent in machine-generated images and spatial configurations. Drawing upon Freud’s concept of the Unheimlich and Baudelaire’s poetics of the double, it interprets AI-driven architectures as manifestations of disturbed familiarity, emerging from a syncretic combinatorial logic that challenges ...

In the history of philosophy, death has not only represented the end of biological life.
