In his lectures on Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, Adorno sketches out the imbrication of the first two of these ideologemes, referring to them collectively as the "residual theory of truth," a reductive method in which "everything that can be regarded as ephemeral, transitory, deceptive, and illusory is left to one side, so that what remains is supposed to be indispensable, absolutely secure, something I can hold permanently in my hands" (25). Cook's discussion of this "culture of control" also parallels Rose's focus on working-class intellectuals and their imbrication in new methods of cultural reproduction. He has recently published two books on his work: Houses: Recycling Reconfiguring Rebuilding (New York: Thames & Hudson, 2005) and Making Public Buildings: Specificity Customization Imbrication (London: Whitechapel, 2006). |
