The Computational Design: Practices, Histories, Infrastructures symposium is a two-day event at Carnegie Mellon University that examines computation as a subject of both scholarly and creative inquiry in architecture and other design fields. Along with the exhibition Designing the Computational Image, Imagining Computational Design at the Miller Gallery (Sep 22-Nov12), the symposium seeks to situate contemporary design methods in relation to broader histories, disciplinary frames, and socio-technical infrastructures. The speaker, workshops, and demos line-up combines key scholarly voices and practice-based researchers from the United States and abroad to examine computation as a subject of both critical and creative inquiry in architecture and other design fields.
The event is organized by Assistant Professor of Architecture Dr. Daniel Cardoso Llach, and will be hosted by the Frank-Ratchye STUDIO for Creative Inquiry.
