Manifesto Diversism

Register: 29.06.2012 / Submit: 29.06.2012

The interdisciplinary nature of architectural geometry is reflected in the diversity of backgrounds of the contributing authors. In 2010 Diversism was hailed as the next important architectural movement in architecture quietly in observation of the current conditions and educated predicitions and aprehensions of the emerging formation of the architectural condition.

Manifesto Diversism invites all Architects to contribute and test and evaluate the emergence of Diversism in our profession. Parametricism and others such as Performativism have also emerged as possible Serious explanations and ideas about profession evolution or revolution or simply directional movement that is present in the realm of architecture and also in its many contributers. The eventuality that these conditions would simoutaneously emerge in the profession has always been alive, yet a universal description of what represents a meaningfull and/or relevant elegant contribution - to 21st century architecture is always in thought, and will remain in thought suggestive every Architect at least Sub-consciously realizes that the condition of the architecture profession is something universal. the condition - The descriptive of the condition of Architecture is a universal descriptive which cannot be avoided. A new extremism of intense diversion of cultures and backgrounds emerging into a possible new world order, which provides the increasing framework for Diversity to flourish. A relatively new phenomenon which started emerging in the 1960s.70s 80s 90s and intensely in the 21st century.

This invitation to contribute to the Manifesto aims to explore the notes and essays of the so called emerging new epoch in architecture, Obviously the conclusion has been made that an epoch is emerging, and we are in admist a time of tremendous change with a financial hicup in the center, and these styles have already acquired there names in order to be recognised in the world at large. ( parametricism for one example ) Manifesto Diversism is politely asking the architectural profession to explore the set of rules which govern the explanation of what is Diversism, and ask professionals and professional students to present projects/Images small or large scale with any program advocating for an age of Diversism. This could be a theoretical project or a real project which uses the principals formed within the diversism such as the drivers and rules detailed on this website and on www.Diversism.com.

The Diversism Manifesto Invitation has been made possible by the increasing list of Architect advocates who believe we have a desription and movement to work towards and we advocate a explanation and descriptive of a reality that has been building up to this dawn in a new epoch in architecture which has been carefully named Diversism. A big prize is available to architects who are willing to test Diversism and push the early maturing ideas into further depth and interest.

The task is to create any scale project which simply tests,critics and evaluates the Diversism values as much as possible. And contribute beautiful scenarios to the manifesto. the website will consist of a small release of this manifesto, a small section of over 20,000 words of notes, and a two page general description of Diversism will be released. the general rules can also be found on the Diversism 2012 rules page. The entries will be judged on how much the entries try to evaluate critic and work with the values of Diversism, And how the ideas are divesified through fluid diversity and how fluid form diversity creates the framework for diversism to flourish into a million species of architectures.

Ideally architects and students will integrate the values into a exsisiting project they may be working on, or will create a new small scale scenario to test the Diversism values, The Scale of the project will not be important, the values are the important elements of the competition. beauty,meaning and interesting works which commuicate the priniciples will also form part of the judging criteria. Although This is a invitation to contribute to the manifesto, it is really a competition also. We will judge how the values emcompassed within Diversism help or hinder Diversism, projects will be judged on the degree of testing made through the diversism values.
