Computation, in its most basic meaning, refers to the processing of information. In this way, both mechanic processes operating in the binary realm of the digital, as well as material processes operating in the complex domain of the physical can be considered computational. This lecture will introduce Achim Menges’s work on exploring the territory where machine computation and material computation potentially overlap, where they not simply co-exist but intensely interact in the design process.

Achim MENGES, “Material Computation.”

Studio Lynn is one of three studios teaching architectural design in the Institute of Architecture at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. The studio is directed by Los Angeles-based architect Greg Lynn and his team of assistant professors as a 3 year Master course with students of all levels studying design topics together. Studio Lynn studio focuses on the composition of intricately connected, subtly varied, continuously differentiated elements in non-modular dimensional series. Students’ sensibilities are attuned to the rhythmic patterns and undulations of calculus as they apply to architecture. We critically and creatively embrace the digital tools that have recently burst into architecture and effloresced in a myriad of forms and shapes.
