Creating the ARCHITECTURE collection.S, ALIVE.E.S, DIGITAL.S / L'Harmattan

Posted on by
The expansion of digital technology and the need to preserve the planet are pushing humanity to formulate a new future. New methods of analysis, the virtuous fabrications of territories and living environment, citizen cooperation and collective decision-making methods must be re-invented. This interdisciplinary collection confronts digital mutation and ecological mutation. It synergizes scientific, creative, theoretical, pragmatic, abstract, concrete, sensitive or rational approaches. It explores debates, hypotheses, experiments, questions or new utopias. It invites high-tech and low-tech. It revisits the anticipatory paradigmatic tracks opened by Cybernetics, the Sciences of Complexity, ecosystemia, the Complex Living or constructivist epistemologies. It summons historical forecasts to shed light on the utopias that are being manufactured today.

  To submit a manuscript to the scientific committee: write to the collection directors, Claire BAILLY(claire@bailly.as)and Jean MAGERAND(magmor@club-internet.fr),who will transmit.

“Ecosystemic Arts / Algorithmic Architectures” Exhibition

Posted on by

Faced with ecological challenges, it becomes urgent to find new methods to invent and achieve more virtuous living environments for human beings and for the planet. The fields of creation are intended to propose to experiment new methods, new living environments and new living together. This exhibition brings together inventive experiments – artistic, architectural, pedagogical – that feed scientific methods in order to propose new ways of developing cities, building, or living together. Works by renowned artists, students from schools of architecture, architects, urban planners, landscapers of agronomists, inspired by the biological and digital, will be exhibited to illustrate these new ways of approaching creative practices .
