Description

This volume shows how the assimilation of the archigram imagery set the bar for the visual output of what have become commonplace tools in architectural practice. It provides a foundation for further analysis of the integration of digital technology into every level of design. Abstract: "Archigram", published in London between 1961 and 1970, featured wired environments which formulated an architectural vocabulary of metamorphosis and obsolescence that cross-pollinated industrial and digital technology. This book presents the study of the prehistory of digital representation to focus on this magazine.  Read more...
