通过探索毁灭的无序效应,本文批判性地探索了物质世界规范有序的方式。废墟中尚未被处理的物体被认定为“废物”,这证明了一些人规范地秩序世界的力量,但也是多余的一部分,不可能完全抹去,其中包含重新解释和再利用的丰富潜力,因为它是欠确定的。通过腐烂和非人为干预的过程,废墟中的物体逐渐改变了它们的特性,失去了它们的离散性,它们变得充满了另类的美学属性,它们将它们的物质性强加于游客的感官体验,它们召唤出那些被遗忘的鬼魂,这些鬼魂在工厂关闭后被抛到了过去,但继续困扰着工厂。通过这些方式,被破坏的物质提供了与物质世界相互作用的方式。
By exploring the disordering effects of ruination, this article critically explores the ways in which the material world is normatively ordered. The yet to be disposed of objects in ruins have been identified as 'waste', an assignation which testifies to the power of some to normatively order the world, but also is part of an excess, impossible to totally erase, which contains rich potential for reinterpretation and reuse because it is under-determined. Through processes of decay and non-human intervention, objects in ruins gradually transform their character and lose their discreteness, they become charged with alternative aesthetic properties, they impose their materiality upon the sensory experience of visitors, and they conjure up the forgotten ghosts of those who were consigned to the past upon the closure of the factory but continue to haunt the premises. In these ways, ruined matter offers ways for interacting otherwise with the material world.
