One of today’s most famous architects, Rem Koolhaas, tackles the problem of architectural objects as networked and transformable processes — not only structural, but also social and politi­cal ones. Bruno Latour, in turn, who is a sociologist, is constructing this time a theory — a weapon/ a new tool which will help architects move objects which so far have been static (“Give me a gun and I will make all the buildings move”) and design them in a non-Euclidean space. Theoretically, Latour — by “tapping lightly on Koolhaas’s architecture with a blind person’s cane” — proves once again that we have never been modern and, on the other hand, proposes to look at the design process in such a manner as to see the public character of things, discover the agency of non-human actors. What is the result of Latour’s collaboration with Koolhaas? Will the considerations of a prac­titioner and a theoretician, an architect and a sociologist prove to be an important contribution to the revision of cultural expressions? In my article, in the spirit of critical reflection on the myth of a lonely genius, I shall follow the demands of treating design as a collective process, networking the work of helpers and collaborators, data collectors and seekers of contexts. Are they really imple­mented in architectural practice? Is it really possible to talk about experimental methods of produc­tion and presentation of knowledge in this case?
