title	How does AI affect higher design education? An investigation to open the debate
source	SIGraDi 2020 [Proceedings of the 24th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Online Conference 18 - 20 November 2020, pp. 683-688
summary	This research tries to open the debate about the possibility offered by Artificial Intelligence. Is there a possibility that AI will help us teach in the Architecture career? Can the student have an AI tutor? The architect's learning is carried out through University Education, which is a complex system of: physical spaces, duration and organization of studies, financing, diplomas and degrees, teaching staff and methods, population or applicants, admission requirements. How does AI affect University Education? Will it generate more opportunities? We proposed an experience with AI and images to evaluate this convergent culture.

summary	We imagine the buildings of a not too distant future (constructions that we will inhabit) as the combination of digital design, additive manufacturing, advanced robotics, sensors, transmitters, information in the cloud, information of networks, information of other robot networks, etc. all interconnected and with autonomous response. We imagine the skin as a biomimetic envelope of autonomous response to environmental changes. We perceive that skin, or the envelope of the architectural construction made with personalized products, a physical object created by printing layer by layer of a three-dimensional model or 3D digital drawing, an additive manufacturing or 3D printing. We do not rule out that this physical object can be printed in 4D in a process in which the skin itself or envelope built by a process linked to advanced robotics and AI can generate products that modify themselves to respond to changes climatic.

title	Urban Gis - The Application of the Information Technologies to Urban Management
source	Second Design and Decision Support Systems in Architecture & Urban Planning (Vaals, the Netherlands), August 15-19, 1994
summary	Many cities in the UK and indeed throughout the developed world are characterised by the all too familiar symptoms of urban blight caused by insensitive intervention in the environment. The common denominator within this class of problem is the lack of a coordinated, integrated approach to the planning, design and maintenance of our cities. The cycle of development and redevelopment calls for input from a diverse range of disciplines relating to architecture, civilengineering, transport engineering, and the management of city utilities. This lack of a common up datable information base renders access to a global view of the city difficult, if not impossible.This problem has provided the motivation to move towards an integrated philosophy regarding information collection, collation and dissemination. The impetus is provided primarily through theincreasing complexity of urban management but also through central governments policy to progress towards decentralisation of services. Fiscal pressure to increase efficiency, lower manpower resources and arrive at speedier judgements all point to an increasing reliance on the information technologies. Current work at ABACUS within Strathclyde University addresses research whose objective is to identify, and then prototype, a relevant urban information system. It is proposed that by attributing a geometrical framework with those physical quantities thatare relevant to the formal and functional evaluation of the urban environment, the means of evaluating the qualities and quantities of the buildings aswell as the social and economic prospects may be realised.

summary	This project was an investigation into the application of Urban Information Systems [UIS] based on 3-Dimensional computer models. The research centred on a collaboration between the Architecture and Buildings Aids Computer Unit, Strathclyde [ABACUS] and the Edinburgh Old Town Renewal Trust [EOTRT] to develop a detailed computer model of Edinburgh's old town. The area of particular interest is the development of an interface to a database of property related information. This provides a means of analysing the multi-layered and multi-dimensional spatial data which is characteristic of urban environments. The research also investigated how, by using multi media technology as a data integration tool , urban models could be used to improve decision making in the framework of urban management.

title	Multimedia - A Multi Purpose Programming Environment
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.1995.183
source	Multimedia and Architectural Disciplines [Proceedings of the 13th European Conference on Education in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe / ISBN 0-9523687-1-4] Palermo (Italy) 16-18 November 1995, pp. 183-186
summary	In the few short years since the emergence of multimedia programming tools this activity has moved from the periphery of the Information Technologies to the mainstream of computing applications. This is due not only to the progressive development in hardware and software technologies but also to the escalating set of desires of authors and users of multimedia products. Perhaps the most interesting theme within this strand of development is in the progression of the capabilities of the scripting and programming capabilities now on offer. The purpose of this paper is to trace the development of this aspect and speculate on the future of multimedia authoring tools as a new generation programming environment where the distinction between multimedia and CAD becomes less well defined.

title	Spatial Similarity Metrics: Graph theoretic distance measurement and floor plan abstraction
source	Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures / 978-1-4020-6527-9 2007 [Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures / 978-1-4020-6527-9] Sydney (Australia) 11–13 July 2007, pp. 251-263
summary	Comparing space allocation programs computationally is a resource intensive task. This paper introduces a method which reduces the complexity of floor plan graphs to facilitate the problem. In a first step the nodes are labeled according to a laid out classification scheme. This in its own right reduces the complexity of the comparison by introducing more diversity among the nodes. Subsequently the graph can be coarsened in several steps based on the category information. This does not only further reduce the necessary computation, but can also offer a visualization of and additional insight into the essential structure of the space allocation program at hand.

source	Communicating Space(s) [24th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9541183-5-9] Volos (Greece) 6-9 September 2006, pp. 884-889
summary	Part of an EU funded project to develop a “VIrtual campus for virtual space design Provided for European Architects (VIPA)” was the implementation of a practical run at the Vienna University of Technology. Therein we attempted to evaluate some of the concepts and technologies which were intended for the e-learning platform. After briefly introducing the didactical background, this paper concentrates on the technological setup accompanying the course. Especially the use of Croquet as an immersive three-dimensional environment to teach generative design is highlighted; its strengths and weaknesses in supporting our envisioned didactical concept are analysed. The practical run and its evaluation by the participating students are described, as well as some of the student work performed during and after the course. Concluding remarks elaborating on problems encountered in the software setup and in our didactical concept, followed by the description of future work to amend the above mentioned pitfalls, will mark the end.

summary	This year's conference theme `Towards a new configurable architecture', provides a good starting point for reappraising and reapplying previous concepts of `Configuration' in architectural design. The concept reappears often, but was particularly powerful whenever new computational tools and architectural concepts emerged and revealed strong synergies. In the 1960ties there was such a moment when configuration's pluralistic properties embraced architectural concepts of structuralism and early computing. Therefore this paper looks back at previous concepts of configuration to identify capacities that could inform current synergies of computational tools, such as open platforms, and architectural concepts of the second digital turn in architecture. The way we communicate, access, and exchange information recently accelerated towards realtime sharing of data, bits & pieces, and experiences. Open platforms that enable user-generated content and collective production of value are becoming more common in design. This paper discusses ways in which this collective content production can enable a computational and human-centric architecture, by reappraising previous concepts of configuration such as: open configurations, latent structures and variable infills.

title	Blockchain Architectures, the Potential of Web3 for Decentralized Participatory Architecture - Collaborative objects on the Blockchain
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2022.1.431
source	Pak, B, Wurzer, G and Stouffs, R (eds.), Co-creating the Future: Inclusion in and through Design - Proceedings of the 40th Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2022) - Volume 1, Ghent, 13-16 September 2022, pp. 431–440
summary	This paper explores the potential of blockchain technology and the Web3 for a decentralized participatory architecture. In this context, the polyvalent capacity of a block in a blockchain is at the center of this investigation. Blockchain innovations in cryptography and efficient block validation and creation systems have led to autonomous blocks that act as decentralized, transparent, and secure Web3 assets. Following our previous research on collaborative objects that enable real-time participatory design activities, a case study project H=N BLOCK+A is developed that implements blockchain principles at both the conceptual and infrastructural levels. At the conceptual level, architectural blocks are speculated and applied as autonomous and decentralized Web3 assets, i.e., a decentralized kit of parts/blocks/NFTs/applications that can form a crazy patchwork of heterogeneous compatible blocks. At the infrastructural level, an existing sustainable blockchain is facilitated to embed a decentralized design methodology that enables real-time participatory co-creation of a collective architectural form.

summary	This paper reports on an ongoing experiment in design collaboration: an open collaborative realtime environment that enables participatory design activities in spatially distributed teams. The project builds on online platforms and open source ways of sharing design ideas, but also on recent advances in shared augmented reality enabled by game engine technology. Furthermore it focuses on combinatorial design of collaborative objects: the models shared in this way are not just geometric forms, but informed systems of parts with a procedural or combinatorial logic, an assembly strategy. By pooling and aggregating such intelligent assembly systems in a shared online realtime design space we are trying to move towards pervasive collaboration in architecture. Authors taking part in the project are united in a shared persistent design space and can design collectively. They experience what we refer to as tangible complexity: a playful mode of aggregating and combining design ideas of different authors. We argue that this pervasive collaboration can lead to novel types of complexity: an architecture of socially augmented formations.

summary	Towards an Architecture of Collaborative Objects, explores the potential of playing with Collaborative Objects in real, augmented and mixed realities. A multi-player game platform App: VoxelCO, developed by the author, provides a speculative playground to research, the interaction with objects, things and people, as well as provokes new opportunities to engage deeply with its content and context. Furthermore, VoxelCO, reveals new modes of participation, to design and collaborate in real-time with augmented reality, using millennial tools: mobile devices. A case study project, the VoxelStage, offered an opportunity to apply VoxelCO to design a stage together with a group of students. To merge the collaboratively aggregated virtual objects of VoxelCO with reality, real WireCubes were augmented and assembled, proposing an architecture of socially augmented fuzzy formations.

summary	This paper investigates the evolution of participatory approaches in digital architecture and art, from the early stages of Web 2.0 to the emerging Web 3.0 landscape. By examining three pixel-based projects - The Million Dollar Homepage, Reddit's r/place, and the Poietic Generator - the study highlights the diverse outcomes and potentials of collaborative creativity when different conceptual choices are made. Drawing insights from these projects, a case study is presented, extending the principles from 2D pixel-based projects to a 3D voxel-based framework for participatory digital architecture. This case study demonstrates the importance of strategic conceptual decisions in shaping the realization of collective forms and provides valuable insights into questions of authorship and open-ended design. As the paper looks forward to the integration of Web 3.0 and blockchain technologies, it speculates on the potential for decentralized participatory applications and the future of collaborative creativity within architecture and beyond. The paper ultimately advocates for a more open, inclusive, and collaborative approach to cultural production that values individual contributions, fosters local collaborations, and avoids the formation of power structures.
