PLAT is an independent Architectural Journal published by students at Rice School of Architecture. In the call for submissions for PLAT 1.5 we began with a disquieting provocation: what is at stake in the disappearing gap between architectural representation and the buildings it produces? The content we received demonstrated representationÕs capacity to transcend its assumed role as a tool for building. But it also revealed another discontinuity, one inherent to representation, which technology cannot close. The various translation processes that are fundamental to architectural representation engender the double discontinuity of gaps and excesses, shortfalls and overlaps. Ideas and agendas never emerge fully intact when drawn, butÑequallyÑthe implications of a drawing always exceed this intent.
