In the realm of hard sciences, time is seen as moving forward towards the future, providing a framework for navigating the entropy and disorder of systems. Time is seen subjectively in the humanities, as Bergson describes it in terms of recursive cycles exposed via sentient experience. From both angles, humanity is inevitably susceptible to time; either they die from entropic dispersion or depersonalizing repetition. Much like science, myth reminds us that time ultimately devours life. But it also points to a possible escape: though Cronus eats his offspring, except for the youngest one, Zeus, who is saved by a stratagem "devised" by his mother Rhea - that is, replacing the baby with a stone. The image of the father suppressing the next generation is then replaced by the myth of the future emerging from the past, when all children are regurgitated by means of another of Zeus' tricks. Thus, the myth implies that intellect (the trick) and intellectual works (the stones) can transcend time: if human beings cannot endure their extreme transience, they can endure the lesser transience of their "constructions" in time. Born to last either physically or as collective memory, the very essence of architecture engages in a (titanic) survival endeavour. Yet, in an era anchored to the myths of perennial youth, shall we also allow the right to be forgotten?

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
