Klappentext
Treatise on digital architecture
Hovestadt's treatise strictly follows the model of the famous treatises by Vitruvius (De architectura ) and Alberti (De re aedificatoria), based on the supposition that we find ourselves in a comparable situation today. Vitruvius and Alberti expressed the meaning of architecture in their eras: Roman antiquity and the Renaissance. Hovestadt has done the same for the present day, incorporating considerations of physics, mathematics, technology, literature, and philosophy.
Books 1 to 3 deal with the role of the architect and the objectivity of architecture.
Books 4 to 6 address the modalities of speaking about and encoding architecture: the secret, the public, and the private.
Books 7 to 10 are dedicated to actual digital mechanisms: artificial intelligence, natural communication, gnomonics, and cultural heritage.
- An architectural treatise for our age in 10 books
- Inspired by the works of Vitruvius and Alberti
- Published in three volumes in the Applied Virtuality series
