ABSTRACT

MY INTEREST HAS BEEN (here) in praxis – in the broad sweep of the production-

to-reception ‘machine’ of architecture; in the ‘possibility of an architecture’, as

I’ve frequently expressed it; a phrase that only latterly I see recurring in sev-

eral texts that variously probe the technical, aesthetic and professional change

implicit with/in a digital medium. The Possibility of (an) Architecture, then, a

somewhat unselfconscious and emergent title, as if marking an infl ection of

the very psychology of, say, Vers une Architecture with its positivist, techno-

rational mandate.
