Antico futuro e progetto in area archeologica. Il “divenire nel mezzo” nel rapporto con l’antico/ Ancient future and in archaeological area design. The “becoming in the amidst” in the relationship with the ancient

What do time and space represent in respect to the "ancient" object? What is the author's task relating to the archaeological area design? This contribution aims to make a reflection on these themes starting from the ancient-future dyad which determines the relationship of past evidence the value of which is recognized in a shared manner, with a phenomenal perception based not solely on knowledge, but also on the discovery of what is not achievable by pure scientific investigation obtained by the use of discipline tools designated to study such phenomena. In Addition to the assumption of the interdependence relationship between the ancient world and the author, especially in regard to the critical exercise of the design and its congruence with the life expectancy of the object, stands the subjective-existential component which is expressed through an intentional “sensitive acting”, not always controllable with rational purposes. An attempt at conciliation aimed to avoid acting too harshly on individuality is the awareness that one must feel transported into a "becoming in the amidst", as Deleuze and Guattari note, achieving a mediated position that manages to review one's limits and boundaries, to the point of being de territorilized. . With these premises, this section dedicated to the designs developed in the archaeological area as part of the activities carried out with last year's summer school/design workshop in Canosa di Puglia comes to a beginning.
