Erotic... why sublime?

Erotic doesn't sound like architectural term at all but after the lecture it make more sense. The definition of the erotic is how the object are interaction between each other. Building can be express by its form and element to the audience. The building and be express in many kind of feeling. The word feeling is very abstract that we can't even specifically describe it. We can feel warm, happy, or even depress in some kind of architecture but another type of feeling of erotic is sublime. This feeling would not happen to us every day in probably will happen where we can't predict. It is a perception that it reaches our limits. It is like when you are really mad of someone and you feel like you are going to explode. Some time I agree with erotic architecture but some time I don't understand why the designer want to give this type of sadness and depression in their building.

AESTHETIC


Aesthetic is mean a "taste" of majority universal. The beauty itself is depend on what most people think. Most of the time we were influence by the Hollywood star, our favorite actor and actress, white skin blue eyes. But do we ever ask ourselves where these standard come from? If we have red hair can this called pretty or ugly? But if what the society say that it's wrong to have black hair? So we people were control by the aesthetic, which is how most people judge or thing about trend.


When modernism exist, where everything turn to be simple and minimal. It become an international style where people were force to follow and share this aesthetic. People were force to dress up the same, act the same, think the same way, which don't think it can possibly be true. Yea, we can follow the instruction for a period of time but it is impossible to be like that forever, because we still have our own perspective. So for me I don't really agree with aesthetic, even though sometime I followed. I think people need to express themselves and have their own style not by follow the what others say.
