“The house is the computer, the structure is the network.”
I participated in The Media House Project, the fruit of a strategic alliance between the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Media Lab’s Consortium (Things that think), the Metápolis group from Barcelona and the Fundaciò Politècnica de Catalunya, with the collaboration of the consortium I2CAT and the Elisava Design School. The purpose is to unite their respective potential in order to build a prototype of an informational house.
This Project enabled the testing of the progression of information Technologies beyond that of computers and integrates them into everyday life, literally looking to build computers from the components of buildings, in such a way, that the logical intelligence of a structure can grow with its physical form.
