Abstract

This studio works on the idea that a substantial understanding of today's technology (internet of things, big data, machine intelligence ...) changes the perspective to architectural theory and will result in different architectural designs and building constructions.

Objective

1) Identification and understanding of the challenges of today's technologies; 2) techniques of working within the plenty of the internet; 3) a methodology to design digital architectures; 4) understanding of the shift from hard building construction to soft building applications, and 5) an understanding of the importance of becoming a literate digital persona in order to be an architect today.

Content

METEORA #11 will use artificial intelligence to write a text to explicate a precise position in today's world, to create a spectrum of images to reflect this world and design an architectural artefact which brings things into adequate proportions
