Autonomous Tectonics, points, lines and mass

The Thesis of this PhD is primarily interested in the application of points and lines in the era of computational design. The combination with computer controlled machines results in one specific effct: computer controlled machines rely on a tool path -a line-  to describe forms in space.

The tendency away from the preoccupation with the amassing of volumes in favor of an alternative that deals with points and lines as coordinates of origin of architectural objects poses a paradigmatic shift. This idea describes a synthetic ecology that forms a natural habitat for ideas oscillating between computational environments and computer controlled fabrication methods.
