This thesis is an investigation on the changing concept of space and its production, through a reconsideration of montage in the digital environment. Since the beginning of the twentieth century, collage and montage have been one of the key terms that lead the movements of art and architecture. Towards the end of the 80s, however, as a result of the introduction of the digital environment, the quality and quantity of methods of production and transfer of knowledge have increased and the flow of information has gained a noticeable importance. Through recent developments, the digital environment offers many opportunities for representation in architectural field as well as other professions. Montage, which is a technique for construction of a new meaning or entity throughout its history, now changes its character with the infinitely many opportunities digital environment proposes as well. Therefore, this thesis tries to examine the changing scope and formulation of montage in this specific environment through the example of digital compositing which is a recent design and production technique used in the field of photography and cinema. Digital compositing provides layering, editing and merging numerous elements in one frame. Through its inherent potential of decomposing time and juxtaposing different modes of realities, the concept of space and production and visualization techniques in the digital medium change also affecting the roles of the designer and the user in the process. Thus, this new formulation brings forward a new understanding of design process that acts as an interface both spatially and temporally.M.Arch. - Master of Architectur
