Book excerpt: "This book presents six independent practices that explore current applications of parametric and algorithmic design techniques in architectural production. If the first generation of digital modeling programs allowed designers to conceive new forms and design processes, a new breed of digital techniques is today being discussed for their ability to allow these forms, once conceived, to be controlled and realized. The question today is how these techniques affect architectural practice. What is their future, and what potentials do they offer to the discipline?"--BOOK JACKET.
