Desirous Machines: Towards a New Architectural Allegory
The relationship between machines and architectural inspiration has changed over the years as technology has become more and more virtual. The machine allegory has therefore edged towards invisibility, pervasively penetrated the integrity of the body, and manipulated matter atom by atom. Architect, artist and academic Peter J Baldwin explains architecture's machinic infatuations, their histories and their exponential acceleration in a time of emerging singularity and technological convergence.
