Εαν δεν έχετε τι να κάνετε και θα θέλατε να χαλαρώσετε (εποικοδομητικά πάντα..)
ρίξτε μια ματιά σε αυτό το χθεσινοβραδινό ντοκυμαντέρ του Ετ1. Νομίζω ο τρόπος που αντιμετωπίζουν τα Μαθηματικά έχει σχέση με όλα αυτά που συζητάμε.

Hyper-materialised immaterial
Re-considering the immateriality of architecture in the digital era
Maria Voyatzaki



Abstract
Architectural materiality is the manifestation of the immaterial philosophical background of architecture. Building materials and construction techniques contain architectural ideas, which are embedded within them, controlling their proper choice and their contribution to structuring a form. The origin of these ideas is based upon the relation between the alive and the artefact, the natural and the fabricated, the human-live being and the building, the material and the immaterial. In contemporary architecture a new ethos emerges from the new content attributed to this relation with a strong impact on the materiality of the building. The paper examines the transformations of these relations in the architectural experiences of the last century and approaches the contemporary overemphasized materiality of architecture as a consequence of a new version of the conception of the building as alive.


'From Structural Systems to Systemic Structures: An Overview of the Architects' Pedagogy of Structures'

ABSTRACT
Architecture, by its very nature a cultural creation, has always striven for the unconventional, the original, the novel and for something different to what has preceded it as a reflex to the changing needs of the society the architect is called upon to serve. Technological limitations can indeed hinder this pursuit, whilst technological advances can enable and enhance it. The originality and novelty of architectural proposals often lies in the importance of materiality. Materiality has been transformed in accordance with the value systems defined in the history of architecture; at times it has referred to the precision or the elaboration of detailing the sensory properties of materials. One of the various aspects of materiality that has concerned architects has been the way buildings stand up. The present paper will focus on the changing perceptions of architecture and the design process, as well as of structures and the impact these changes have had on architectural education.

Key Words: pedagogy, paradigm shift, systemic structures.
