introduction
This book examines morphogenetic processes based on a
combination of digital and analogue modelling and manufactur-
ing techniques. The introduction of the module, as the main
instrument of geometric and structural determination, becomes
crucial. The module as a pre-architectural unit is not read as a
multiplying identical object, but as a variable set of rules, which
due to emerging CAD / CAM technologies is able to adapt, grow
and transform into surfaces and complex geometries. Fractals,
algorithms and systems in nature are taken as a starting point
for the planed experiment.
