This thesis argues that the Bauhaus should be analyzed a historically through the post-structuralist method of Automatic Discourse Analysis. In pursuit of a unified approach to design, history and science by means of experimental knowledge production, the thesis reformulates the assignment of archiving and interpreting the Bauhaus into different inquiries: 1. Contextualising/ Spatializing: Architecture in the Expanded Field. 2. Curating: the structuralist / post-structuralist view of a universal, unchanging order of things. 3. Computing: Data science's macro-view of the world by way of computation. 4. Visualizing: the changing discourses on visual form, language and system. These inquiries are threaded together to support the case of a Bauhaus100 project (www.bauhausorbits.de). Finally, the design relevances of experimentation and software are discussed to illuminate possibilities of reflexive/discursive practice for the future.","**To request an accessible version of the file(s) associated with this item, contact library@buffalo.edu.
