Description: The goal of this course is to probe this spectrum for opportunities to develop an invigorated notion of form and structure, one that has the capacity to adjust and adapt, negotiating between fully-infused networked organizations and atrophying into the regularity or planar surfaces. The work will be focused on a basic design problem: how to produce controlled transformations of a given geometrical module and how to create continuity between organizational states. In contradistinction to either the geodesic logic, where repetition is priviledged, or the logics of formal techniques of singular objects-the course will focus on developing an approach to architectural substance which has the capacity to operate on several scales and attain the several phase transitions within a coherent organization.
