Greg Lynn, one of the leading figures in computer-aided architectural design, is the curator of an exhibition series initiated by the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA.) The exhibitions, which will travel to the Yale School of Architecture Gallery, are to explore the role of digital technologies in the design process since the early days. For the first exhibition “Archaeology of the Digital” Lynn selected four individuals who are the pioneers in applying the new technologies to architectural design: Peter Eisenman, Frank Gehry, Chuck Hoberman, and Shoei Yoh. The exhibition is an introduction to digital design which has progressed since then in a radical fashion. The initiative of the CCA to preserve the early stages of this ground-b...reaking development in architecture will also positively affect the means and the ways of collecting information by museums. more
