- Zusatztext
- Are You a Model? erkundet das Modell als architektonisches Werkzeug und Praxis. Der Band betrachtet Architekturmodelle nicht in starren Kategorien, sondern nähert sich ihnen durch Fragen wie: Was bestimmt die Funktionen und Wirkungskräfte eines Modells? Wann im Entwurfsprozess entfaltet es seine Kraft und wann hat es seinen Zweck erfüllt? Ausgehend von neun übergreifenden Fragen vereint dieses Buch interdisziplinäre Stimmen aus Architektur, Kunstgeschichte sowie architektonischer und kuratorischer Praxis und Software Engineering. 31 Beiträge verflechten Perspektiven aus verschiedenen Regionen und Disziplinen, und suchen dabei nicht nach abschließenden Antworten, sondern offenbaren überraschende Gemeinsamkeiten. Modelle werden hier somit nicht nach Entstehungszeit, Genre oder Material klassifiziert, sondern als epistemologisch vielfältige Praxis verstanden.
