His previous works narrate two historical turns in architectural practice: first, the adoption of computer-aided design and three-dimensional modeling tools since the 1990s; and second, the embrace (by some architects) of computational tools that invite a degree of uncertainty into the design process through different algorithmic techniques. In other words, an evolution from automated drafting tables into self-organizing systems and "big data. "1 In his newest book, Beyond Digital: Design and Automation at the End of Modernity, he tests the ability of this historiographic scaffolding to withstand contemporary socioecological concerns, along with changes in digital tools resulting from the adoption of data-intensive computational methods—the heterogeneous landscape of algorithmic techniques generically referred to as "AI. " In doing so, he grapples with some of. . . You do not currently have access to this content.
