Evolutive Means

Inaugurated on the occasion of the prestigious conference ACADIA 2010, the exhibition Evolutive Means utilizes a computation procedure that crowdsources the ACADIA community. The objective of this pioneering protocol is to index the position of contemporary architectural ideas and concepts in relation to peer-reviewed projects, guest projects and the larger ACADIA community. Based on the established relationships, the algorithm determines the location of the individual projects in the gallery space as well as the attributes of the display volumes.
