Abstract:
This study has as its focus the hypothesis that the uncanny in architecture ultimately informs oneself. It is thus arguably a learned experience, stained with the desire to reveal all both in architecture and in ourselves.
The first part of the report examined the psychological and literary basis of the uncanny. The second and third sections of the report studied the projection of filmic reality and the labyrinthine experience. It was concluded that the hypothesis was seen to be valid for the examples chosen.
