Abstract
To understand the impact of information revolution in the city and in architecture it is necessary to wipe out a wrong idea. The idea is that architects and designers place “objects” in a three-dimensional space. This idea is shaped by a way of thinking we learned as children. For instance, that physical space is really organized by the geometrical rules of the Cartesian system and that the world is really governed by the rules of Newton's traditional physics. Both stands tend to freeze a specific concept of space (historically and scientifically dated) as if it were objective, as if it were “true” once and for ever.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
