PL~n" Art is a representation of a lack: lack of the Whole, lack of an Order, lack of the Other. The prehistoric cave paintings of Lascaux were projections of the object of the hunter's desire. All surviving artifacts and monuments of civilization are materializations of desired objects; that is, every construct is built in the place of a preconceived lack. Without representing the lack of a particular object, the will to form is a blind force that gropingly explores a space of virtual forms desiring to be real. Therefore, representation plots future movement, just like the map orients the explorer towards his future destination. Representation constitutes a reversal through which space and time begin to be traversed according to the systems of their representation. Symbols were inscribed, miniature mock-ups were carved, and songs were put together to assign meaning to an intractable and even senseless sequence of events. Design has always addressed the wish to control matter, to bestow on it a desired complexity and use it as another end of human intelligence. The technological innovations of the twenty-first century shortened the distance between the virtual, desired object and its physical actualization; through software interfaces, rapid prototyping techniques, and programmable materials, we advanced toward a geometry of our private desires and the private means of their production. The map expresses an insatiable desire to attain, to mold, and even transcend the territory. The words of the Representer approach metonymically the absent object like mappings of an
