Hi, how are you friends? Hopefully in good health always. I will try today to describe the architecture of the theme in design. I deliberately made the example of the famous rambo scene, I'm sure many of us are so familiar to him in some famous films ... but believe me it's only in the movie. So there is no such thing as rambo in Vietnam war but in daily practice we continue to be implanted with statements and served with a movie show that represents the situation at that moment as if in the event rambo took an active part in the Vietnam war. What conjunctions that I try to lift now will be related to the science of architecture.
Well, now we will try to enter our theme is simulacra. The simulacra concept itself has actually been spelled out in everyday practice like the cartoon movies we watch or other films and the most obvious one I try to model is a universal studio that tries to lift each of their fictional figures as well as the pecinan in each country. What's the point of it all? Which they are trying to create an atmosphere different from others or rather they create "the world in the world".

Jean Baudrilard
Baudrilard, acknowledged that simulacara is a simulated fund space, ai also argues that there are three stages of simulacra. The first is the simulacra that lasted the renaissance era until the beginning of the industrial revolution. Simulacra at this stage is a representation of the natural relationships of various elements of life. Secondly, the simulacra that goes along with the development of industrialization era. At this stage there has been a shift in representational mechanisms due to the negative impacts of industry. The third stage, simulacra that emerged as a consequence of the development of science and information technology. In this case human experience and inhabit reality, where the differences of reality and imagination / fiction is very thin and example example as I mentioned above. If likened to the world of reality is like now the television and everything they convey is a different world form Reflects a perfection of the creative.

In the world of architecture it becomes interesting, because architects deliberately direct a new experience different from the previous one deliberately translated in concepts and the realization of the final form to the user, as if the user wants the application in a building a concept and sensation as if he was Are free and others and the concepts are different from the circumstances and the environment and if the user can reach the sensation as mentioned then the perfect concept applied.

I think this is just as an indicator of the success of the concept. So the theory of simulacra in architecture is very possible in the postmodern era as it is today. I conclude this theory as "the world in the world".
With the direction of fiction and system of application constantly then in the final stage simulacra is the birth of a reality / experience that is directed until the user believes with his imagination.
thank you for visiting and I invite all my friends to give suggestion and constructive criticism. Hopefully the architects are getting better .... regards
