Summary:
Durant plusieurs décennies et avant l’avènement de l’électronique, la photographie a suscité les espoirs d’une relève du papier comme support d’accumulation et de diffusion du savoir. Dans ce mouvement d’accélération et d’automatisation de sa diffusion, la photographie a été amenée à dépasser l’opération élémentaire d’enregistrement mimétique du monde pour devenir un(...)

Durant plusieurs décennies et avant l’avènement de l’électronique, la photographie a suscité les espoirs d’une relève du papier comme support d’accumulation et de diffusion du savoir. Dans ce mouvement d’accélération et d’automatisation de sa diffusion, la photographie a été amenée à dépasser l’opération élémentaire d’enregistrement mimétique du monde pour devenir un médium hybride englobant à la fois l’enregistrement de l’image et le traitement des données relatives à celle-ci. Son statut s’en est trouvé profondément redéfini : de surface servant de support matériel à l’image latente, la photographie est devenue interface à travers laquelle cette même image se trouve non seulement fixée, mais encore augmentée de toutes sortes de renseignements – chronologiques, géographiques, techniques – qui lui permettent de se donner à voir comme information. Revenir sur son histoire oubliée, « chaînon manquant » entre l’ère du livre et la culture numérique, s’avère essentiel pour saisir les fondements de la « société de l’information » contemporaine et des digital humanities.

This issue focuses on diverse combinations of architecture and support structures. The structures presented include a pre-stressed concrete construction, a twisted wood frame truss, a point-supported bowl composed of pre-fabricated steel elements and a lattice bowl with an enormous span width. Helen & Hard's library in Norway illustrates how a support structure made of glue-laminated timber can merge with built-in components and furniture. A pavilion at the University of Tokyo makes use of a strut system in the form of a tensegrity structure for its temporary architecture. A framework of a completely different kind was used by gmp Architekten for the national stadium in Warsaw: the roof consists of a modified bicycle-wheel-like structure that can be completely enclosed by a membrane. In an interview, Volkwin Marg of gmp Architekten talks about his experiences in conducting major representative projects in many different countries all over the world.
