<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Electric brain or creativity? </p> <p/> <p/> <br> <p>In the era of cybernetics, architects suddenly <br>encountered entirely new ways of operating technical systems: buildings <br>could be calculated using circuit diagrams, creativity and imagination <br>were confronted with the technical intelligence of thinking machines. <br>Architects found themselves in the crosshairs of cybernetics. At stake <br>was nothing less than the continued existence of the architect's <br>inventive intelligence in a techno-scientific world. <br></p><p><br></p> <p>Today, we <br>see computing machines, once so heavy, losing weight while gaining <br>power. Computers are fully colonizing the human environment, creating <br>their own digital ecosystems, and giving rise to forms of society and <br>ways of being that cannot even be explained without big data. Available <br>for the first time in English as a new edition. </p><p></p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p> <strong>Georg Vrachliotis</strong>, Prof. for Architectural Theory and Digital Culture, TU Delft </p>
