At the dawn of the twenty-first century, digital technologies have
enabled new techniques for the development of architecture. In
Catalytic Formations, Ali Rahim suggests that these digital design
techniques have the potential to affect the wider cultural
landscape in profound ways. Digital technologies allow architecture
to engage in a feedback loop with its context -- to absorb
influences and produce concrete effects on its users. This book
offers both a philosophy and specific techniques for how architects
can catalyze cultural advancements. Also included are provocative
examples from Rahim's work at Contemporary Architecture Practice
and projects by Zaha Hadid, Greg Lynn, FORM, and other cutting edge
architects.
