Proliférant sur l’ensemble de la planète, le stade est devenu l’un des plus puissants symboles d’une société mondialisée en proie à la démence financière et à l’aberration technologique. Lieu par excellence d’un ordre sportif –?en apparence?– immuable, son architecture est à la croisée d’une technologie esthétisée et d’une esthétique high-tech. Le stade contemporain a(...)

Résumé:
Proliférant sur l’ensemble de la planète, le stade est devenu l’un des plus puissants symboles d’une société mondialisée en proie à la démence financière et à l’aberration technologique. Lieu par excellence d’un ordre sportif –?en apparence?– immuable, son architecture est à la croisée d’une technologie esthétisée et d’une esthétique high-tech. Le stade contemporain a vite déployé et intégré les techno-logies numériques, faisant du sport un spectacle total et de lui-même un spectacle en tant que tel. Le spectateur y est absorbé par les écrans portables ou fixes, petits ou géants, contraint à une visualisation ininterrompue, à une attention soutenue et surtout à la dépendance totale vis-à-vis de la compétition sportive. Illustré de nombreux exemples, ce livre analyse le processus de numérisation intégrale du stade devenu une petite ville envahie d’objets et d’individus connectés, et rend compte des enjeux sécuritaires concomitants. Il montre comment le caractère asservissant du sport de compétition, décuplé par la numérisation du lieu même de sa pratique, pulvérise la conscience des individus.

Contributors instead confront vital questions concerning the multiple and hybrid forms networks take, the different ways they are imagined and engaged with by publics around the world, their local effects, and what human beings experience when a network fails.

Résumé:
Advances in Architectural Geometry is a symposium presenting both theoretical and practical work linked to new geometric developments applicable to architecture. This symposium aims to gather the diverse components of contemporary architectural trends which push the building envelope towards free form, and which respond to these design challenges with a renewed mathematical rigor. A research section of 26 papers is preceded by an interview with Frédéric Migayrou (Deputy director of the Musée National d’Art Moderne, Centre de Création Industrielle – Pompidou Centre), where he explores the larger context of free-form architecture with respect to contemporary architectural design and the last two centuries of structural engineering.

Résumé:
The assimilation and synthesis of digital communications among architects, engineers, fabricators and builders is dramatically altering how we work and our relationship to the tools we use. New digital capacities are restructuring the organization and hierarchy of design from autonomous processes to collective workflows. The historical role of the designer as an author, a sole creator, is being replaced with semi-autonomous, algorithmically driven design workflows deeply embedded in a collective digital communication infrastructure. This is creating a number of pressures on the discipline of architecture to reorganize around the opportunities, and risks, of these changes.

Résumé:
This book, based on the authors’ internationally renowned Emergent Technologies and Design course at the Architectural Association in London, introduces a new approach to the practice of architecture. The authors use essays and projects to demonstrate the interrelationship of concepts such as emergence and self-organisation with the latest technologies in design, manufacturing and construction. With projects from their course, and critiques and commentary from some of the world’s leading design theorists and practitioners, the authors of Emergent Technologies and Design have introduced a radical new way of understanding the way in which architecture is conceived, designed and produced.

Résumé:
In The Second Self, Sherry Turkle looks at the computer not as a "tool," but as part of our social and psychological lives; she looks beyond how we use computer games and spreadsheets to explore how the computer affects our awareness of ourselves, of one another, and of our relationship with the world. "Technology," she writes, "catalyzes changes not only in what we do but in how we think." First published in 1984, The Second Self is still essential reading as a primer in the psychology of computation. This twentieth anniversary edition allows us to reconsider two decades of computer culture--to (re)experience what was and is most novel in our new media culture and to view our own contemporary relationship with technology with fresh eyes.
