The Hidden Lives of Algorithms - Philip D. Plowright, Silvio Carta

When we draw basic geometric forms — lines, circles, points — to describe the possible future shape of our buildings and our cities, do we consider what predetermined social interactions are embedded in those forms?Though simple, this question is often overlooked. As generative and analytic algorithms increasingly automate the design of our built environment, the power of basic geometrical notation to affect social meanings becomes both more powerful and more elusive. This book examines how the... Zobrazit více
