In the written thesis that follows, Sebastian J. Stoddart explains the theory behind Manic Architectonics and its involvement in the creation of his body of work. Explanation of ties linking psychological study to aesthetic properties and emotive qualities secures the foundation from which work may be born. As the title suggests, the synthesis is composed of expressions of perpetually obsessive psychophysiological scrutiny based on architecturally derived imagery, manifestation represented by individual case studies.
