Architecture and the Interspecies Collective: Dog and Human Associates at Mars
Abstract Architecture typically overlooks the presence of animals and the role design plays in domestication. Domestication makes settled human societies possible through the shared burden of labor with animals. The farms, laboratories, “pet-friendly” offices and homes in which animals work are places where humans work too. This article explores one interspecies workplace: a pet-food research facility employing hundreds of dogs owned by the Mars company in Tennessee. The dogs are housed in circular buildings that depart from the linear arrangements of most kennels. In trying to understand this design strategy and the collaborative relationship between humans and dogs in the petfood laboratory, theories of animal labor are drawn from Vinciane Despret, Jocelyne Porcher, Donna Haraway and Isabelle Stengers. This architecture fosters the transformation of the individual and the formation of a specific mode of collective action, the pack.
期刊介绍:
Architecture and Culture, the international award winning, peer-reviewed journal of the Architectural Humanities Research Association, investigates the relationship between architecture and the culture that shapes and is shaped by it. Whether culture is understood extensively, as shared experience of everyday life, or in terms of the rules and habits of different disciplinary practices, Architecture and Culture asks how architecture participates in and engages with it – and how both culture and architecture might be reciprocally transformed. Architecture and Culture publishes exploratory research that is purposively imaginative, rigorously speculative, visually and verbally stimulating. From architects, artists and urban designers, film-makers, animators and poets, from historians of culture and architecture, from geographers, anthropologists and other social scientists, from thinkers and writers of all kinds, established and new, it solicits essays, critical reviews, interviews, fictional narratives in both images and words, art and building projects, and design hypotheses. Architecture and Culture aims to promote a conversation between all those who are curious about what architecture might be and what it can do.
