Reading Response 007: Algorithmic Architecture

Algorithm differs from the term like CAD or computer graphics, it’s a way of thinking, it creates the possibilities which human thoughts may extend beyond our limitations.
Designing is a way of thinking with logic, creativity, feeling. Additionally ,large numbers of constrains exist simultaneously in an architectural design, it would be very difficult to meet them all within human intelligence. Algorithm will serve as the means to establish the way of thinking. It opens up more potential possibilities than utilizing just human-based intelligence when dealing with design problems.
Computers communicate with designers by accepting information. Human intuition is the starting point, the computer capabilities of computers should be integrated. With the development of technologies, we put forward questions like how people think and how design evolve. This means that computer should not only act as machines, but also as tools for exploring what haven’t been understood.

 Computers in architecture are used to replicate human thoughts at first, later its tasks have more creation. With new ideas occurring, the relationships between designers and computers will be more complicated. I hope to see more possibilities to be created in the future.
