Architectural theorist/historian Kristina Luce discusses her research on the history of architectural drawing (analog and digital). The following excerpt is from a sprawling interview on Serial Consign which covers everything from perspective projection through parametric modeling...
"The computer’s ability to model aspects of reality and generate feedback, its tendency to particle-ize knowledge, its ability to extend our control over space-time expand what approach an architect might take to generating and defining design. These different nuances factor into what is certainly part of the essential debate within architecture today. It may appear that we are only talking about pictures, but I think the reason the debate gets passionate is because we are really offering opinions about what architecture and design are."
