Architectural Materialisms: New Materialisms

Editat de Maria Voyatzaki
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 aug 2020
Maps materiality's importance in the emergent posthuman future of architecture This book gathers 14 architects, designers, performing artists, film makers, media theorists, philosophers, mathematicians and programmers. They all argue that matter in contemporary posthuman times has to be rethought in its rich internal dynamism and its multifaceted context. By transversally crossing disciplinary boundaries, new and profound insights into contemporary thinking and creating architecture emerge.
Combining the dynamism of materiality and the capacities of nonhuman machines towards prototyping spatiotemporal designs and constructs leads to alternative conceptions of the human, of ethics, aesthetics and politics in this world yet-to-come.
Key Features
  • Examines how contemporary materialist philosophies affect the theory and practice of architecture
  • Addresses the consequences of the strong impact of information technology and computation on the conception on matter and on the processes through which it can be modelled and tested
  • The interdisciplinary approach allows architecture, philosophy, materials sciences, humanities and media theory to cross their disciplinary boundaries to offer more profound insights into contemporary architecture
