- What is happening to modern architecture? ¿Qué está sucediendo en la arquitectura moderna?The situation of humanity has entered a whirlwind of changes due to COVID, the evident climate change and the spectacular development of science in a digitalized and global world. Texts and technological advances are surpassed before they can be taught or disseminated. Nobody has time to read scientific advances, much less learn how to build them. The physical world space is connected every day with less physical time and mental time becomes more capable of symbolically reaching more virtual spaces. The threat of a catastrophic implosion between both space-times, the physical and the virtual, is greater every day. The danger of volatility increases day by day. If in the biblical Tower of Babel the condition for the physical survival of humanity was dispersion throughout an empty world, now the condition for survival is the opposite, we must unite in a world capable of communicating between languages to build a habitable earth in its entirety and not with towers of increasing height, as the Bible accuses. The biblical curse still stands, if we do not know how to react and each person continues to build their towers in their own way and according to their languages, either the climate, the war, the plagues, or a mixture of everything, will wipe out all of humanity.
- The interplay between architecture and education. El juego entre la arquitectura y la educaciónThis volume shows the deep changes in architecture by the impact of the AI and the climate fast evolution in mankind. We are just now with the Covid to feel these changes, but it is just a start point, neither the medical sciences nor architecture in itself will never be the same. Just to announce that the next volumes in ARQUITECTONICS will analyze how education architecture and politics will evaluate altogether, the next years, in a new political, physical and cultural environment. First step:The International Conference in Madrid, in June 2023, by The Piaget International Society about BRINGING THEORY TO THE FOREFRONT OF DEVELOPMENTAL NEUROSCIENCE.
- Artificial intelligence and architectural design: An introductionThe aim of this book on artificial intelligence for architects and designers is to guide future designers, in general, and architects, in particular, to support the social and cultural wellbeing of the humanity in a digital and global environment. This objective is today essential but also extremely large, interdisciplinary and interartistic, so we have done just a brief introduction of the subject. We will start with the argument fixed by the Professor Jonas Langer in his web some years ago, that we have defined as: “The Langer’s Tree”.
