In Vitro City: A Laboratory without Experiments

The paper states the relationships between the instrumentality of building systems, the aesthetics and politics of software and the digital technologies impact on the built environment. It explores the space between the architect’s intentionality and the changing modes in architectural production. The text proposes a critical awareness of the epistemological and technical dimension of the digital instruments as a way for architects to better appropriate the expanding array of digital tools in an ever-increasing urban complexity.
