Part of the "Tools" series of Abstractions.
I am of the idea that the great architecture masterpieces are a product of what we can relate to as the ‘analogical era’. As architects and academic today we continuously reference masters as Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, Michelangelo amongst numerous others
The question which arises is: How do we work as twenty-first-century humans? How do we create? How dowe research? Is velocity provided by di- gital tools, overlapping ‘manual’ tasks, depriving us of the time a design, a draw, an essay, or whatever art piece, needs to be successfully completed?
It seems that the current high-speed algorithmic world we live in doesn’t allow for us to patiently mesmerise ourselves in the flow of the process a project. Deep and focused attention is at times superseded by the immediate next ‘thing’. This brings me to ask whether technology is really facilitating our creative process or, instead, is it leading us versus a systematic process of easiness and repetition, and therefore, lack of real creative problem-solving stage in design?
The assumption that technology is evolution, is development, could be blind-folding us from a real creative approach, converting what should be external tools in internal apprehensive mechanisms of creativity.
The project took part to the Care/less Sharing competition.
