One of the potentials of the field is to redefine the relation between figure and ground.....A moire is a figural effect produced by the superposition of two regular fields. Unexpected effects, exhibiting complex and apparently irregular behaviors result from the combination of elements that are in and of themselves repetitive and regular.
.....the prototypical cities of the late 20th century are distinguished by horizontal extension. What these field combinations seem to promise in this context is a thickening and intensification of experience at specifited moments within the extended field of the city....The skycraper as modernist monument as vertical moments.
