The Multiplicity of Time as a Principle of Morphic Sequences: Design as Event
This article proposes a theoretical framework in which time is understood not as a neutral metric but as a plural morphogenetic principle. Drawing on Aristotelian conceptions of time, motion, and causality, it argues that form does not arise as a predefined outcome but stabilizes through temporal conditions such as rupture, continuity, repetition, and threshold. The paper situates design as an event-structure in which temporal organization precedes formal determination, and it critically addresses the limits of representational approaches that detach form from causal genesis. The contribution establishes Design as Event as a rigorous theoretical orientation grounded in temporal necessity rather than procedural sequence.
