Isomorphic House

One can quickly start to observe how the boundaries between these images begin to fade, and they start appearing more as different aspects of the same thing. They all reveal different layers and kinds of information about the same thing through various means. They all start becoming EQUALLY PHYSICAL and EQUALLY DIGITAL. The concrete understanding of the physical geometries and materials is invalidated by demonstrating the flexibility of physical surfaces and the change of geometric behavior through different processes.

I do not want to disacknowledge the complexity of physicality by undermining it based on simulations, nor I wish to disacknowledge the analytical structures underlies in our physical world. I want to arrive at an inclusive concept in which physicalness and digitalness are intertwined and inseparable. I want to develop a world-view in which both concepts are just parts of an infinite complexity surrounding us—an ISOMORPHIC conception of THE DIGITAL and THE PHYSICAL about our built and architectural ENVIRONMENT. I am trying to reveal and represent the layers of information and techniques in a very OBJECTIVE, HONEST, and LITERAL way. I am trying to uncover the underlying digital and physical structures and logics in the contemporary architectural production and design process. I am trying to reveal the conditions and especially THE POTENTIALS of an architectural ( and ARTISTIC ) object in our time.
