STATEMENT

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate and discuss the machine's potential in architecture, where the machine acts as a transformer, translating contextual and aesthetic readings or recordings directly into design parameter.

Initially, the intention is to produce one or several machines based on specific contextual and architectural phenomena. The machine[s] is an experiment in form generation, where the machine[s] transformation of inputs can lead to unexpected results, and aesthetic potentials. The machine[s] is a fusion of the information contained on the site. The machine[s] transforms the registered into viable architectural potentials in relation to different contextual circumstances.

The experiment explores whether it is possible to create an architecture machine which on the basis of contextual and architectural phenomena could be the basis for an architectural genesis. The machine[s] creates a platform where each element is processed, in order to form meanings and narratives. What I want to discuss is how the composition of the machines influence the output, what does the output mean, witch inputs were more rewarding and how does this affect the architectural outcome ?
