Data-driven architectural production and operation

Abstract

Data-driven architectural production and operation as explored within Hyperbody rely heavily on system thinking implying that all parts of a system are to be understood in relation to each other. These relations are increasingly established bi-directionally so that data-driven architecture is not only produced (created or designed and fabricated) by digital means but also is incorporating digital, sensing-actuating mechanisms that enable real-time interaction with (natural and artificial) environments and users. Data-driven architectural production and operation exploit, in this context, the generative potential of process-oriented approaches wherein interactions between (human and non-human) agents and their (virtual and physical) environments have emergent properties that enable proliferation of hybrid architectural ecologies.Architectural Engineering +TechnologyArchitecture and The Built Environmen
