This lecture starts from the complex, opaque and sometimes scary work of Eric Owen Moss, read through his ''Constuction Manual'', to investigate the contribution of construction, fragments and ''as found'' in the ambiguous, yet compelling production of Architecten DVVT.

It was given at the EPFL (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne), on the 24th of March 2014 and is part of the Difficult Double, a series of lectures organised and curated by FORM, with the aim to discuss parallels, connections and architecture as collective knowledge in general.
