Title: Behind the scenes
Description: "This book aims at revealing almost step by step the methods for approaching architectural design using Information Technologies to open new fields of investigation. Motivated by this spirit, in the first part are sections on Polysurfaces, Keyframing, Morphing, Metaballs, Particle Systems and others on interconnected, open and dynamic systems that bring together contemporary science and computers. But for an essential group of architects this new frontier is also a fundamental attempt to make architecture change interactively with changing situations and desires. The second part of this book is aimed precisely at understanding this world, including the "technical" viewpoint, both through a detailed analysis of the realm of sensors and interactive systems as well as by outlining the overall logic of a new environment. An environment half natural and half artificial, created and developed by new forms of media."--BOOK JACKET.
