The Sustainable Lightness of Digital Fabrication
AbstractIt seems, in many quarters, that technology is viewed as bad for aspirations for a sustainable future. This Neo‐Luddite narrative is hampering the way the advantages and disadvantages of digital technology are perceived. Mario Carpo, Reyner Banham Professor of Architectural History and Theory at the Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London (UCL), argues that new technologies succeed older ones because they perform tasks better and more efficiently, innovatively and faster, both changing and responding to changes in societal and urban realms.
