Architecture and Naturing Affairs

In this anthology with contributions about architecture, media, and infrastructure technology, the authors investigate in what multifaceted way architecture and information is in tune with contemporary technology, and in what way we live with them.

The book is divided into following parts: BREEDING (medialising matter), BREATHING (transcending language), and INHABITING (making things inhabitable). The compilation of various text contributions creates a lexicon of ‘naturing affairs’ and is written for readers who look for an inspiring overview of our medialised environments.

• A lexicon of media and architectural concepts
• Contributions from architects, artists, writers, and theorists
• Newest volume of the Applied Virtuality Book Series
