Rereading the original images in terms of individual and shared experience, memory, and aesthetics, he investigates their substance formats, materials, surface textures, colours, marks and traces, signatures of the authors in order to divulge the singular details that express the history they hold, and thereby reflect upon the sense of transformation on a global scale in the period when they came into being.

Résumé:
In "Cities and complexity", Michael Batty offers a comprehensive view of urban dynamics in the context of complexity theory, presenting models that demonstrate how complexity theory can embrace a myriad of processes and elements that combine into organic wholes. He argues that bottom-up processes -- in which the outcomes are always uncertain -- can combine with new forms(...)

Résumé:
In "Cities and complexity", Michael Batty offers a comprehensive view of urban dynamics in the context of complexity theory, presenting models that demonstrate how complexity theory can embrace a myriad of processes and elements that combine into organic wholes. He argues that bottom-up processes -- in which the outcomes are always uncertain -- can combine with new forms of geometry associated with fractal patterns and chaotic dynamics to provide theories that are applicable to highly complex systems such as cities. Batty begins with models based on cellular automata (CA), simulating urban dynamics through the local actions of automata. He then introduces agent-based models (ABM), in which agents are mobile and move between locations. These models relate to many scales, from the scale of the street to patterns and structure at the scale of the urban region. Finally, Batty develops applications of all these models to specific urban situations, discussing concepts of criticality, threshold, surprise, novelty, and phase transition in the context of spatial developments. Every theory and model presented in the book is developed through examples that range from the simplified and hypothetical to the actual. Deploying extensive visual, mathematical, and textual material, "Cities and complexity" will be read both by urban researchers and by complexity theorists with an interest in new kinds of computational models.

Résumé:
Architects’ mock-ups typically represent an abstracted, idealistic vision, and their models are generally understood as filtered interpretations of the environment, which tend toward the utopian. For this publication, conceptual artist and photographer Thomas Demand visited the untidy office of SANAA in Tokyo several times, exploring the aggregated environment he found there, where paper and discarded cardboard – the thought process of every project – survives in a sedimentary layering of materials. The resulting series of photographs shows an abstracted landscape of architectonic forms, devoid of human scale or reference, yet resonating with the language of creativity.
