La "funzione ciliare", il movimento dell'occhio che riproduce l'effetto di una lente e consente di mettere a fuoco o offuscare la visione, è diventato l'emblema del punto di vista critico da cui partono Diller + Scofidio (+ Renfro) nella loro ricerca e sperimentazione. Il lavoro di questo studio newyorchese deve la propria notorietà a un genere che è una sfida per il ruolo odierno sia dell'architetto che dell'architettura. I suoi progetti interdisciplinari spaziano da oggetti, installazioni e performance ai media e all'architettura. In anni recenti - con l'arrivo di Renfro - lo studio si è ampliato per estendere il proprio raggio d'azione ai progetti su scala urbana. Il volume, introdotto da una prefazione di Reinhold Martin, contiene saggi che analizzano il contesto, le influenze e le strategie dello studio, alcune interviste con gli architetti, un dossier cronologico dei loro incarichi.
