Overview

The book provides an opportunity to survey the emerging field of Architecture and Artificial Intelligence, and to reflect on the implications of a world increasingly entangled in questions of the agency, culture and ethics of AI. The main goal of Neural Architecture is to understand how to interrogate artificial intelligence—a technological tool—in the field of architectural design, traditionally a practice that combines humanities and visual arts. Matias del Campo, the author of Neural Architecture is currently exploring specific applications of artificial intelligence in contemporary architecture, focusing on their relationship to material and symbolic culture. AI has experienced an explosive growth in recent years in a range of fields including architecture but its implications for the humanistic values that distinguish architecture from technology have yet to be measured.

This book explores the interdisciplinary project that brings the long tradition of humanistic inquiry in architecture together with cutting-edge research in artificial intelligence.

Quotes from the book:
“The application of AI is the first genuinely 21st century design method in Architecture.”

“The aesthetics of neural architecture are particularly interesting in allowing us to reflect on aspects of human and artificial ingenuity, the position of architecture after several millennia of history, and its further development in a posthuman era. It is an aesthetic that oscillates between the familiar and moments of estrangement in an architecture that is at the same time alien but full of recognizable features.”

“Neural architecture embraces the possibility of design methods that are deeply informed by existing information in the form of databases and understands that the artificial modeling of neural processes can aid in harnessing the information in big data.”
