( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)Solutions to the significant social, ecological and economic opportunities and problems of 21st century architecture and urbanism involve a vast number of variables. These solutions will require the use of data-driven ... -
Adaptive architecture, an implementation with game theory. Emotional input and pneumatically driven actuator
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)In the active context of adaptive architecture, this proposal tackles the field of Human Building Interaction. Indeed, material would no longer be inert but activated by the users, programmable and equipped with memory. ... -
Design as semiosis: A design mechanism for place branding
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)The described design methodology combines parametric design, data analysis, algorithmic design and semiotics theory to systematically analyze urban reality. The analysis leads to a creation of a nebula of data which ... -
Digital Master Builders: Disruptive construction technologies
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs estimates that by 2050 the world's population will have increased by over 2.1 billion people (UN DESA, 2019). Providing housing and infrastructure for them would ... -
LIQUID CITIES, a city designed by citizens
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)Rezone wants to make the concept of the city more liquid.. A city where things can change, a flexible city that adapts to the desires of its inhabitants. A city designed by professionals, but also by its citizens. A city ... -
Urbanism Beyond Cognition: On Design and Machine Learning
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)It could be argued that the introduction of new technologies always shifts the 'epistemological horizon' of the different fields they impact. New instruments allow expanding the range of parameters defining a discipline's ... -
Using the fractal dimension to generate parametric Islamic patterns
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the cause for over 70% of global deaths. Various levels of healthcare delivery from home-care to tertiary care exist for patients where patients with NCDs are treated. Demand for services ... -
The Extreme Structures of our Universe
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)My story is a tale of extremes. Extreme artificial structures that we have built on and around planet Earth. Extreme natural structures that exist in our Universe, and extreme structures in our mind, when we try to understand ... -
Fundamentals of Robotic Fabrication in Architecture: Multi Materiality, Multiscale Resolution and Multimode Production
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)This paper discusses the recent advancement in architectural materialization processes. The focus is on design to robotic production systems through which the realization of more efficient building processes and building ... -
Shared Models and Open Infrastructures for the smart City Internet of Things based on the Semantic Web
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)Contemporary cities face many challenges: energy, ecological, demographic or economic. To answer this, technological means are implemented in cities through the use of sensors and actuators. These cities are said to be ... -
Crossing the Rubicon: Tevere Cavo, an Urban Project for Rome
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)We believe that the new frontiers of Information Technology have to deal with the central role of Infrastructures in the existing city. Indeed, this new generation of infrastructures will allow the 'redirection' of the ... -
Medinas: From Vernacular to Smart Sustainable Cities and Buildings
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)Cities are the most prominent agile and resilient complex systems that evolved over time and space. Many of them survived for centuries, some for more than two millennia, like the Medinas of the MENA region, and they are ... -
Towards an Artificial Architecture: About Superintelligent Space
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)In the essay The Doctors of Tomorrow Will Be Supercomputers, published online at futurism.com, Leary (2017) says doctors will be replaced by artificial intelligence-fed supercomputers. This is in line with many theorists ... -
Al Thumama Stadium: Local and Global Architectural Reach
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)The world cup stadia have been a constant concern for the hosting countries. Many of them have become a burden on the economies of their countries, only to become white elephants after the tournaments end. Therefore, the ... -
Reconstructing identities and the idea of Global Regionalism
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)We live in a time of great anxiety and change; a time of shifting allegiances where the certainties upon which we have relied have simply vanished. Our once familiar political landscape is in flux; pandemics, civil rights, ... -
Where Are We Now?
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)After 16 years of leading the Hyperbody research group as professor of practice at the TU Delft, I wanted to do something completely different and looked at the Gulf region for further educational and professional activities. ... -
Smart Cities: A Socio-Technical Perspective
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)This research paper elaborates upon the concept of Smart Cities and the evolution of the term itself throughout history in order to outline the emergence of two distinct schools of thought: technocentric and humancentric, ... -
Robotic Fabrication as Catalysts for Emergent Topologies and Traditions: Nomadic Small Pavilions and Permanent Mega Structures in Kuwait
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)This paper reviews tendencies and drives for future parametric computational design and robotic fabrication/construction automation. It sheds light on the local current impact of the computational paradigm and mass-customized ... -
The Affective City: Cartography of Machinic Urban Assemblages
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference)While the city is generally perceived -within complexity theory and dynamic systems theory as a changing field of dense interactions that occur in a range of spatial and temporal scales, we are unable to perceive it or ...
