This is in strict opposition to the digital rendering&rsquo;s desire to make the fiction seem &ldquo;real.&rdquo;</p></em><br /><br /><p>Sam Jacob brings a current and analytical view to an essentially important and generative architectural tongue, the drawing. He writes about its anachronistic&nbsp;existence in the transitionally digital threshold years and how it is re-emerging&nbsp;and manifesting itself via the post-digital fictionalism. The article&nbsp;alludes&nbsp;to the demise of the money shot type of&nbsp;hyper-realism&nbsp;as well as the return of the fictional and sensorial collage, at this time via google, illustrator and the photoshop.</p>
