Abstract

When I decided to choose Architecture+Representation as my territory of investigation, I had considerable interest and curiosity in the principles and potential of emerging technologies in the field of architecture. However, I was confused about their significance and goals. Because the theoretical support of the latest technologies in the field of architecture is being built and refined but with no commonly recognized knowledge, it was precisely the confusion that guided me and ultimately made my studies at MS AAD so rewarding.The degree book revolves around my interpretation of the definition of “emergent” in the context of generative design, i.e., a way of generating where the result is the superposition of a series of unpredictable processes. This book focuses on three projects I have completed at MSAAD that provide insight into architectural design’s unpredictability and complex interaction in terms of the generative process, the metabolic process, and the post-life.
