Abstract

Today architecture must organize itself into different configurations, simultanously hybrid spatialities nourished by technology and media. Architecture is entering an age of fluidity without the ontological anchor that geometrically defined space previously supplied; it must express and create new modalities, open up possible worlds. What we are in general experiencing is a continually mutating spatiality.
