• Technology and culture have formed a feedback loop: advances in technology have accelerated

pace of innovations in architecture

• “To produce design innovation, architects cannot be passive recipients of technological change, but

must participate actively in this feedback loop”

• Therefore it is encouraged that we use programs that may not necessarily be designed for

architecture (modelling software) to explore new possibilities – “draw upon innovations of other

fields”

• Aim of techniques should not be final solution but instead development of more techniques

• Computers are not used merely as efficient tools to carry out practices, but have potential to

generate real time feedback and more dynamic interactivity between design and users, and also

have the ability to preserve complexity through all levels of design

• Ray and Charles Eames and Panton - Just as earlier generation of designers sought to grapple with

social, cultural, and economic realities of era of mass production, today's architects must fully

engage the conditions and possibilities of the digital ageEMERGENCE – READING 2 WEEK 6 JOSH KIM 8304548
