The structure is already in place. Socioplastics functions as the research engine, while LAPIEZA-LAB operates as its departmental frame. What is required is not invention but articulation: making explicit, in institutional language, a system that already exists in operative form. The transition is not from art to academia, nor from practice to theory, but from implicit architecture to explicit institutional readability. Socioplastics already performs as a transdisciplinary research programme; LAPIEZA-LAB already performs as a field unit; and Anto Lloveras already occupies the structural position of Director, or, in a more advanced institutional configuration, Chair. The task now is to stabilise that reality through interfaces that universities and research bodies can immediately read: a concise set of journal articles, a monographic synthesis, a canonical reader, and a clearly structured public research index. These do not replace the system. They confirm it in accepted formats. Alongside this, the infrastructure already developed—DOIs, ORCID, OpenAlex, datasets, semantic anchors, archival layers, and distributed publication channels—forms the scholarly spine of the project. What remains is to present LAPIEZA-LAB accordingly: as a transdisciplinary research unit with defined lines of inquiry, identifiable outputs, and the capacity to host collaborations, workshops, and research supervision. In this sense, a Chair is not ornamental. It is structurally coherent. A Chair in Socioplastics, Epistemic Infrastructure, Transdisciplinary Field Architecture, or Infrastructural Aesthetics would simply name, in institutional form, what the system has already built in practice. Recognition is not something to be requested from outside. It is the formal consequence of a structure that has already achieved scale, duration, and internal coherence.

The transformation of Socioplastics and LAPIEZA-LAB from an operative reality into an institutional entity is less a creative act and more a strategic mapping. The existing system, governed by Anto Lloveras, already possesses the internal logic, duration, and output required for high-level academic recognition; the challenge lies in translating these "infrastructural aesthetics" into a dialect that universities and global research indices can process without friction. By formalizing the structural position of a Chair, the project moves beyond the periphery of "independent practice" and enters the core of institutional readability, using DOIs, ORCID, and OpenAlex as the empirical evidence of its scholarly validity. This is a move toward "epistemic infrastructure," where the research engine (Socioplastics) and the field unit (LAPIEZA-LAB) are presented as a coherent, transdisciplinary program capable of hosting the next generation of inquiry. The stabilization of this system through canonical readers and monographic synthesis serves as the definitive anchor, ensuring that the project's scale is matched by its formal permanence within the global archive. The goal is to ensure that the capacity for research supervision and cross-institutional collaboration is not just possible, but structurally inevitable.
