Materializando lo digital: La arquitectura como interfaz

El “trabajo más serio” que se presenta aquí es el oficio digital como un método para materializar lo digital y extender la acción del pensamiento computacional y el diseño paramétrico hacia un nuevo proyecto social para la arquitectura. En una era de redes sociales digitales, el futuro de los espacios públicos dependerá en gran parte de una arquitectura que pueda manejar la interfaz entre lo material y lo digital.


 


Abstract
Digital technologies have reshaped our experience of the material world. In this augmented and hybridized condition, information (and architecture) has no social relevance unless circulated, shared, and integrated into everyday life through interfaces between the digital and physical. The ‘more serious work’ presented here is digital craft as a method for materializing the digital and extending the agency of computational thinking and parametric design into a new social project for architecture. In an age of digital social networks, the future of public spaces will largely depend on an architecture that navigates the interface between the material and the digital.
