Thème de recherche

Résumé :

En prenant pour méthode constructiviste le modèle de la pensée  tentaculaire, symbiogénétique et “SF” de Donna Haraway, la thèse  s’appuie sur la phénoménologie perceptive, cognitive, linguistique et  ontologique pour refonder les représentations sociales, dissoudre  les régimes discursifs du monde globalisé, ainsi que les vestiges de la  colonisation et de l’anthropocentrisme.  Elle ouvre une pratique de  recherche, de travail et d’inclusion sociale, transdisciplinaire, en  intégrant l’intelligence artificielle (IA).  Dans  cette voie, la thèse propose de réinitialiser le rôle de la science et  de placer la pratique architecturale en phase avec les besoins de notre  contemporanéité.

Ce cadre conceptuel réinscrit l’acte d’architecturer dans la lignée des  technologies intellectuelles au service d’une approche thérapeutique de  l’organisation territoriale, urbaine, paysagère, architecturale,  spatiale et/ou dispositive. Il s’inscrit dans la  visée du principe d’infravie (Thomas Heams, 2019) : la continuité  biologique entre le naturel et l’artificiel, un cadre qui invite au  développement d’infrastructures biologiques. Ce changement de paradigme  établit des passerelles pour créer des liaisons possibles  entre des pensées jusqu’ici vécues en termes d’opposition : économie et  écologie, local et global, “ars e natura”, “pleroma e creatura”, etc.

De ce substrat harmonisé et unifié, la thèse pose les fondements épistémologiques d’une méthodologie appelée Profilage Écosystémique et Géographique des Systèmes (PEGs),  où les différentes couches d’analyse de données deviennent des couches  de potentialité pour le profilage et la croissance de la mégarégion  symbiotique, impliquant la scalabilité allométrique  transcalaire des édifications humaines inscrites dans une dimension  fractale. Dans cette perspective, l’économie circulaire est redéfinie en  tant qu’économie écosystémique fondée sur le (re)nouveau de  l’intelligence écologique et de la symbiose territoriale  à proprement parler.

Fanjasoa Louisette RASOLONIAINA, affiliated with  the laboratories ECHELLES at Université Paris Cité and EVCAU at ENSA  Paris Val-de-Seine, both located on the campus Des Moulins.  Her main research focus is architecture as a counterpart to language, within the perspective of systemic design, digital culture, and projective ecologies.

Adopting Haraway’s model of tentacular, symbiogenetic, and “SF” thinking  as a constructivist method, the thesis relies on perceptual, cognitive,  linguistic, and ontological phenomenology to redefine social  representations, dissolve the discursive regimes of  the globalized world, as well as the remnants of colonization and  anthropocentrism. It opens a practice of research, work, and social  inclusion that is transdisciplinary, integrating artificial intelligence  (AI). In this regard, the thesis proposes to reset  the role of science and align architectural practice with the needs of  our contemporary context.

This conceptual framework reinserts the act of architecture within the  lineage of intellectual technologies serving a therapeutic approach to  territorial, urban, landscape, architectural, spatial, and/or  dispositive organization. It aligns with the principle  of infravie (Thomas Heams, 2019): the biological continuity between the  natural and the artificial, a framework that invites the development of  biological infrastructures. This paradigm shift establishes connections  to create possible linkages between thoughts  previously experienced in opposition: economy and ecology, local and  global, “ars e natura,” “pleroma e creatura,” etc.

From this harmonized and unified substrate, the thesis lays the epistemological foundations of a methodology called Profiling Ecosystemic and Geographic Systems (PEGs), where  the different layers of data analysis become layers of potential for  profiling and growth of the symbiotic megaregion, involving the  transcalaire allometric scalability of human constructions  inscribed in a fractal dimension. In this perspective, the circular  economy is redefined as an ecosystemic economy based on the (re)newal of  ecological intelligence and genuine territorial symbiosis.
